"This series uses the simple gesture of pencil on paper to explore a far-reaching chart of all the possible consequences that might arise out of my everyday experiences. Using the structure of a flow chart or family tree, seemingly singular experiences grow quickly into an overwhelming network of potential futures. It also exposes the enormity of psychological locations the mind may occupy within any moment."—Beth Campbell
