LAND | GROUND | ERRATIC(S)

Explores concepts of landmark, identification, and surveying of “erratic”; those significant leftovers from geologic history that present themselves as both useful and “problematic”. The objects of geologic history that call to many as legible objects, there to be read; obscure, obstacles capable of resolution.

The most recent iterations of the erratic project exist in material form as raw clay boulder fields with those significant “boulders” presenting themselves as oversized in relation to the contrasting surroundings; a quad of layered clay construction composed of the detritus from other projects.

These “boulders” as they are more commonly known, specifically to the climbing community, are sought after; often revered. And not only by climbers, but also by those that navigated the land… this is an ongoing project. More to come…

Project Duration | 30 Days + Post Production | 01.04.2026 - TBD

Status | Ongoing | Funding Under Review

INPUT

Primary Physical Materials

Stoneware Clay Detritus.

Theoretical and Conceptual Foundations

Landscape Theory, Geology, Perception and Cognition of Landscape.

SYSTEM (aka. Apparatus)

Materials

Stoneware Clay Detritus, lumber, fabric, plastic, hardware

Method

Use the conceptual foundation of imagined boulder fields as source to create a stratified clay surface; layer, form and finish with carefully positioned boulders and broadcast variety of varying grained dry clays. Document process and use the photographic “encounter” to complete a pair of image outputs. Exhibit those photographs as landscape photography.

OUTPUT

Apparatus & Sculptural Object | Dismantled, Exhibited (tbd)

Photography & Print | Documentation, Exhibition and Limited Purchase.

TBD
