Atmospheric Studies
Summit Station, Greenland, 2018-2020  
Select paintings, watercolor pigment and snow collected at the surface before it had the chance to compress into glacial ice, 12x14”
I made these paintings while working as a science technician at Summit Station—a National Science Foundation research site located at the center of the Greenland ice sheet, atop two miles of ice near an elevation of 11,000 feet. I wanted to create a parallel record to the scientific one generated by the instruments I worked to maintain, sensitive machines designed to track our planet’s thin changing atmosphere.
