Santiago Island, Galapagos 4

When I visited Santiago Island in the Galapagos for the first time, I felt like I was stepping onto another planet, where surreal black lava stretched endlessly in every direction. The lava on the island is old as 750,000 years. I became fascinated by the swirls and ropey textures left behind by once-molten rock. Through a completely natural process, the lava destroyed everything in its path. But when it met the ocean, it transformed into a beautiful, delicate surface. I felt deeply connected to this rocky surface when I explored it on foot, I was like a child playing in a world I had never experienced before. These prints are a the record of that memory and a celebration of the many fascinating textures on Santiago Island.
