Virginia Kistler

My work is born out of the intersection of science and technology, while driven by my interest in the rapidly changing landscapes in which we all live. I mine systems found in the natural world and contemporary technology to create two-dimensional work and sculptural forms. 

My process includes using two-dimensional imagery and my own photography in the createion of my works of sculpture. I use impressions that are unseen and ephemeral, such as fungi spore prints, aerial maps of green space, light maps of urban landscapes, sound impressions, and intererence patterns. Using these natural phenomena and technological systems, I dissect and synthesize the information to create three-dimensional forms as a mechanism for understanding our shifting world.
