My art activates the unseen. I think of the objects I make as three-dimensional drawings, which emerge and recede in space through techniques of camouflage, illusion, and manipulation of scale. Through these object-drawings, I seek to reveal the instability of perception and how varying modes of attention shape our experience of the world. I wonder: How do we attend to or conceive of the spaces we inhabit? Within a world of networked technologies, what does it mean to be touched by something or connected to someone. In my work, I combine ordinary items from the “natural world” with those that are “man-made,” choosing materials that go unnoticed because of their physical properties, perceived abundance, or disuse. I explore the ways that objects “speak” in ways images cannot. I am interested in the psychology of space, the complex network of relationships between objects and their surrounding environment. My work seeks to address aspects of these encounters that are difficult to represent or capture: vibrations, forces, energies.
