Working at the intersection of poetics, psychology, environmentalism and contemplative practice, my art aims to provoke self-inquiry and dialogue regarding social issues. Taking a conceptual approach, I am interested in constructing sculptures, paintings and interactive installations as a way for viewers to embody metaphors presented for reflection. Through form and idea, I search for the poetics of materiality and relationship, and the transformation that arises from wrestling with internal and external worlds. I am particularly drawn to the elegance and monumentality found in the ordinary and ephemeral.
