Monoculture

This composition draws from a landscape photograph that I took of a familiar scene in my childhood having grown up in the country and across the road from a large cornfield. I remember those fields as a watch piece marking the seasons of the year and thinking of them as a thing of beauty. As I’ve grown older, I’ve come to see them paradoxically as a thing of horror, realizing what they’ve replaced and the biodiversity they’ve erased. Monoculture II is a sentiment to this paradox.
