Artist Statement
The piece shown, 112440, aims to capture an act of dynamic movement. Unlike a photograph where the viewer is commonly presented with a single moment captured from a larger sequence, physically representing a larger and longer expression of movement in space and time, as seen here, is a concept seen in much on my work. This piece was developed during the course of a three-month study into fluidity and dynamism of physical forms, using a predetermined collection of signifiers. Several hundred studies were explored during this process to identify and rationalize the final piece presented. This work is hand assembled from laser-cut sheets of metalized acrylic with corresponding hardware.
As a materials and process-driven artist, my work is guided by investigations in both 3D and 2D realms. The work is at times biomorphic, hyper technological or both. A making dialog of analog to digital and back again frames much of my studio’s output with the aim of producing new visual aesthetics and spatial experiences. I’ve developed my body of work by focusing on materials and a rigorous approach to formal composition. I’ve learned that every material has its own memory and an ambition for what it wants to be. As a visual artist, I’ve learned that what makes my work distinct is the depth of exploration I undertake to achieve new aesthetics. From hand assembling laser-cut sheets of metalized acrylic to sculpting digital 3D environments, each piece balances a series of techniques to achieve results that often exceed initial expectations. Studio projects include spaces, objects and material explorations.
