Artist Statement:
I walked up the dirt road
before leaving the mountains.
Fall was creeping in. I
thought a car had driven by,
but there remained a strange
banging and rattling noise. I
turned around and listened,
yet nobody was there. I looked
again; it was just a 25

a tree. With the winds kicking
up, I ran back down the hill.
There were always strange
machines in the basement. A
Victrola, oil lamps, and car
transmissions sat in the dark,
collecting dust by the coal
furnace. I grew up in a log
home on a mountainside in
Pennsylvania’s coal regions,
where black slag piles were
poised to swallow one-street
towns: a landmark of the
Industrial Revolution’s
demise. When I would pass just
over the ridge and wander
through abandoned factories, I
could feel the heavy air
inside: damp and laden with an
eerie silence.
My childhood existed at the
tail end of an era of
typewriters and rotary phones:
forms of communication that
demand a physical connection.
These fragmented memories
still exist in the tactility
of ink embedded into a
surface, whether rolled
through a press or fed through
a typewriter. ...
