Stratum I is an original artwork from my Stratum series. These works accrue layers in much the same way as a sedimentary rock formation, a product of both matter and time. Mixing raw earth with binders, I apply a base coat to the substrate, leaving it to dry. Further, thicker layers are applied, into which I add inks and pigments. The thick application of materials transforms the canvas from two-dimensions to three, blurring the boundary between painting and sculpture.
