Artist’s Statement

My sculptures describe an idiosyncratic world that draws upon the absurd to visualize sensations of wonder and play, aiming to engage with ideas of existence. My works aim to exploit extremes and contradictions that explore themes such as stability/instability, fragility/strength, control, and letting go. Constructed in bright color combinations and patterns in unexpected juxtapositions my sculptures are pieced together with everyday materials such as paper, duct tape, wood, and cardboard. I want to explore the complex and contradictory nature of everyday life.
