TIME IS UP!

Anastomosis (a surgical term for an artificial connection of parts)
Drawing inspiration from antique illustrations and modern graphic styles alike, this series of work functions as a sort of pseudoscientific anatomical encyclopedia. Pieces vary in size and degree of embellishment, but each is freehanded in acrylic ink with a nib pen to achieve bold, organic lines. They are arranged by visual execution rather than tangible subject matter and invite viewers to form their own connections between the set as whole.
