My spontaneous land art began because of wildfires that swept across several counties in the North Bay on October 9, 2017, and included my community. My husband Ken and I evacuated for nine days. Ousted from my studio, I began to make on-site art that I recorded with my iPhone. There was freedom in making ephemeral assemblages while worrying that my home could be burned. Anthropomorphic images called out to me from the stones, branches, leaves and dirt that I encountered on my walks. When we returned safely home, I respectfully visited nearby burnt areas to photograph the devastation. For solace, I combed beaches where the shifting sand is littered with nature’s detritus as well as continuing to create spontaneous land art on walks close to home.
