Artist Statement

Orange (split), 2014

“Through an incremental means of building with utilitarian materials, industrial felt, wood, paper towels, felted wool sweaters, I make sculpture, installations and drawings that study mass, void, density and weight, compression and release. Within these qualities, I find parallels in the physical and psychological states of the body, sensory knowledge and the human condition. Orange (split) further explores my fascination with the relationship of materiality and elemental, abstract form in both object and image. With the accumulative layers of marks and line, I study these qualities and the potent saturation and physicality of color.”
