Graduate Thesis Work:
​2016-2018

Through the action of separating natural and man-made elements from their environment, and creating potential composition after living with these elements in my studio, I create dialogues between the objects, forming connections and relationships that lie within my controlled arrangements. My adopted materials become momentary paintings that eliminate the concern of having a deliberate beginning and a conclusion, ultimately embracing happenstance and open-ended transformation.
Focusing on form follows material, I choose to work with materials simultaneously to identify agency. Concrete, foam, wood, charcoal and moss are examples of the materials that I come into contact with on a daily basis. Each one of these materials has practical functions.  My intention as the maker/artist is to remove a material’s functional identity, and allow the elements to communicate together as I live with them over time.  As long as this conversation continues, the potential exists for the work to change.
