Return to: Abigail Doan Artist Statement
My work is a threaded dialogue between vanishing tactile processes and emerging technological means. An examination of the exquisite interplay between the myriad fibers of art and science allows for a systemic and comprehensive view into microscopic determination and the will of the organic realm. As a geomorphic agent and environmental tinker, I create recombinant maps, floating topographies, and in situ souvenirs that highlight the delicate nature of our environs and the degradation of spirit that results from our repeated abuse of natural resources and shared terrain. By festooning and inserting leave-no-trace materials into a landscape, I hope to reinforce the inevitable processes of decay and destruction with galvanized seeds and visual cues that hover as poetic hosts for ecological and narrative propagation.
