The artist has created several series of digitally composited topographies, here populated by dogs and misplaced houses. Suggesting a world on the brink of obsolescence, this chilling image further cements the pervasive undercurrent of human alienation—from one another as well as the natural environment—that can be traced throughout the artist’s work.
