With twine and often black light, I make three-dimensional drawings to emphasize obscured elements within recognizable objects and correlate the symbolic with lived experience. Inspired by both the interior and exterior, I look for sites where nature has been permeated by manufactured elements or ways in which structures can communicate certain particulars about the current human condition. My work is multi-sensory and requests participatory involvement: lines expand and contract in space in a visually manipulative manner to engulf the visual senses. I create a kinetic and relational art experience that reawakens for a moment the simple intrigue of looking and encourages the appreciation of spaces for what they are while also examining their hidden meanings. Both natural and synthetic light is used as a drawing medium to bring my sculptural installations to life, the lines becoming ethereal elements that establish otherworldliness and invoke curiosity as they expand and contract in space.

Spatial studies are also conducted in the studio through paintings, prints and drawings, works that emulate my three-dimensional ideas on a two-dimensional plane. Currently that study has evolved from multiple recreations of a shape derived from a basic window installation of a parabolic curve. Each time the shape is reused the composition further deconstructs. Embroidery in these works replicates line used in the installations and breaks the conventional grid of the composition.

“Terminus” (2014) visualized Atlanta’s transportation past, present and future and New York City subway tunnels. It was a multi-media installation created from light, ribbon, string and video. Projection created by Pablo Gnecco, sound design by Adam Babar, armature construction by ExhibitCraft and photography by Steve Moraco. The audience was able to enter “Terminus” and traverse the artwork as if walking through a subway tunnel. This project considers what the city of Atlanta could become if their transportation issues were resolved. The piece was installed in Atlanta, Georgia at the Goat Farm Arts Center for the Hambidge Center of Creative Arts and Sciences Art Auction.
