3309 and 75 are “dirt books” created with clay from Pike Road Alabama (3309) and Blairsville, Georgia (75) layered on watercolor paper in a Moleskin album.

These dirt paintings in book form carry story on its pages. The experience of the turning the page, the tactility of the material, the sedimentary layers of color, smell, and texture of a familiar land evoke memories of these two places. As remnants shift and fall away, each turn calls me to ‘remember the future’.

The production process was not simple, which is appropriate. The books are not replicable.
