Describing the work, the artist says: 'The work shares an illustrative approach to map-making; of places through a contour maps, of trees through the mapping of tree rings, and of people, through chromosome mapping of the human genome, layers of a place and depth of being. As a playful abstraction of data, they are all open to interpretation and hope to provide a distraction in an otherwise busy and sometimes, stressful environment.'
