While varying in size and material, a consistent visual vocabulary unites my work.

. 

Saturations of red echo the bodily in an aesthetic double entendre: the form replicated (in varying degrees of abstraction) is of the geologic body Blood Falls, a feature of the Taylor Glacier where isolated organisms are observed solely through their 3 story sanguine run-off. The symbolism extends to the construction,  as the multi-layered pieces mimic the unplanned processes of accumulation, erosion and collapse that define natural feature formation. 

Through this evolving language,  I explore tensions between emergence vs containment implications of rarity, the role of chance and time in the service of transformation. Bodies in a state of becoming- like the shadows in a Shirley Jackson story they refuse to stay still.
