Artist Statement:
From ideation to decay, my work is both prompted by and pointing to curiosity and transformation. Regardless of medium, I am equal parts obsessive and spontaneous, carefully crafting opportunities for wandering. The objective is not a finished piece, but the process itself.
Through minimalist geometric installations, sculptures, paintings, experiences, and photographs inspired by the work of minimalist sculptors and land work artists, I communicate the temporality of state, the cyclical and curious nature of mind, and the contradictory pleasure and pain of growth. I intentionally practice this change and inquisitiveness in my studio, to lessen the fear of my own evolution as a human. As the work continuously finds new form, I push myself to do so as well, learning and progressing and surrendering to what is.
