"
Shift is inspired by the ancient coastline of Newfoundland, a landscape that made me intensely aware of geological time.
During my residency, I became fascinated by the sense of energy I felt coming from the land and by the thought that these rocks and coastlines were shaped by forces at work millions of years ago. The landscape felt both immensely old and somehow still in motion.
The title 
Shift is a nod to seismic change and the vast geological forces that have shaped the land. It also reflects my own experience of being immersed in a landscape that made me feel the passage of time on a scale far beyond our own."
