“This was my most challenging work to create, and a departure from the figuration I’ve attempted before. The concept was to create an accurate map of Columbus, using a range of resources like Google Earth, zoning maps, and satellite imagery, over the course of one year. Here, the city is presented as a sort of mystical net cast upon the landscape, with only a few concrete buildings rendered in the foreground. People do not take precedence here - only local fauna as angelic overseers populate the land.” - Aaron Burelson
