Visual Language System

Repetition as Narrative
My longstanding interest in repetitive visual forms served as a structural device throughout this project — reflecting the cyclical nature of wildfires, both in ecosystem and media coverage.

Texture & Tone
The strong contrasts, layered textures, and raw edges evoke a visceral visual language. Each technique offered its own voice — relief prints for stark destruction, etchings for detail and decay, monoprints for unpredictability.

“Happy Accidents”
In embracing technical imperfections — smudges, ink spills, misregistrations — I mirrored the uncontrollable force of fire, allowing process to shape outcome.
