In my work I create transitional spaces and re-imagine realities to explore ideas around the absent and present body. I work primarily with steel, fabrics, paper, rocks, and wood. My approach to abstract sculpture is supported by my background in painting as I replace brush strokes with contorted and woven forms of aluminum and steel. Figures are replaced with de-contextualized photographs of people and the contour lines of a painting are translated into the lines and the edges of sculptures carving out and dividing space, or lying like great weights on the floor.
