Through her pieces, Cook depicts landscapes that have been stripped of their defining features by capitalism and monoculture and highlights the chaotic nature of archives and how a nation can excessively control its citizens. Her practice is a comprehensive collection of signifiers and materials, including the use of mahogany wood, which has a history of being exploited by colonizing Europeans, and black wool canvases sourced from Europe. Drawing inspiration from Hanne Darboven's Cultural History 1893-1983, Cook uses a combination of historical and personal elements, such as artwork and postcards, to reflect the myth of America. By assembling a representation of America and her connection to it through a mixture of the significant and the insignificant, she incorporates overlooked and memorable items with found objects and elements of American folk art in her paintings. ...
