See-Saw Shape
2024
Rooted in my childhood spent exploring the woods and constructing whimsical structures with friends, this body of work draws inspiration from the intrinsic motivation that fueled those carefree moments. See-Saw Shape aims to evoke playfulness in viewers, reigniting the spirit of their inner child.
Step into your Alibi
2022
Step into your Alibi is an opportunity for visitors to play and confront their own relationships to play across childhood and adulthood. I create this body of work using ceramic and found objects of play that stand with an interactive play experience. The show's title, Step into your Alibi, is a direction for visitors to let their guard down, and find an alibi to explore the space with the curiosity of their past-child-self.
Sink or Swim
2020
It has been a natural progression from my upbringing to investigate bathing suits, non-slip rubber tiles, and swimming strokes. I use a process concerning the one-to-one translation. I use the term one-to-one translation because these works are not exact one-to-one copies or replicas, but are the result of a repetitive indexical process. I use methods of moldmaking and casting, printmaking, and mark making in order to transform the information embedded in the bathing suits, tiles, and strokes.
Loose Parts
2019
A physical exploration of Simon Nicholson’s play theory “loose parts” where children inherently use their imagination to bring use and life to random assortments of objects with no real use. This body of work is a collection of loose parts curated together as obstacle courses and moments of contemplation.
Hypochondria Adventures
2017-2019
Hypochondria Adventures is a short story with two iterations. Inspired by writing with images like the work of Sophie Calle, this work is an experiment in curation of text and images. Meant to emulate my ever wandering mind.
Stampede
2017
Stampede is the result of sculptural printmaking is my terms for an indexical process that manifests in three-dimensional space. Like traditional printmaking it is systematic, repetitive, and can produce multiples, yet in sculptural printmaking multiples emerge as distinct entities united by their materiality. For this body of work, I applied this term to my local landscape using found rotting wood, blown tire, and my own hair for investigation.
