With embroidery, ink paintings, and mixed media works, Patricia Pauchnick presents us with images of the suburban sprawl from a decidedly contemporary vantage point: the sky. Satellite technology, a cornerstone of our digital epoch, often creates distant, abstracted imagery of the planet, and offers a distinctly digital-age perspective of our familiar California landscapes. The rich data mine of historical satellite imagery available via internet (most notably Google Earth), also allows us to see the progression of construction in California through the last thirty years. Viewing human activity at this perspective can lead one to contemplate our effects on the land, natural resources, and perhaps consider the nature of these large-scale, automobile dependent, corporately developed housing communities.
