Artist Statement

All I See is a body of in-progress work that is coming forward in diverse forms. It is sound, text, image, performance, and social practice with the intention of amplifying our relationship to nature as public space and to continue the conversation on the healing role of public parks. All photographs and improvisational poetry walks were taken in Forest Park, Queens, during the first nine months of the New York City lockdown for the Covid-19 pandemic. The QR code links to a sound interpretation of "Toque de Batá correspondiente a Ogún y Ochosi".

The series is comprised of the following three works:

Arquitecturas difíciles (All I See), 2021
Artist’s photograph in postcard format on brushed metal

Encanto (All I See), 2021
Artist’s photograph in postcard format on brushed metal
12 x 8 inches

Distancia (All I See), 2021
Artist’s photograph in postcard format on brushed metal

50 postcards (6”x4”) designed as takeaways for visitors to communicate with the artists to continue the conversation on the sacred, the historical, and the healing powers of nature.
