Borrowed Views takes its name from shakkei (借景), a Japanese principle of borrowed scenery. The philosophy is simple and humbling: we never truly own what we see.
What has emerged from this developing body of work resonates alongside these philosophies—honoring the unseen, the unintentional, the discarded.
