About

My sculptural installations embrace the entanglement that humans have with their more-than-human surroundings. These installations challenge the varying relationships that humans have with nature, particularly the perception that nature is outside of human society. I appropriate natural forms, such as rocks and icebergs, by skewing their scales in digital spaces. This process inherently produces tensions in the translation from analog to digital and then back to analog. Technology is utilized as a tool to connect the natural and manufactured world. Materials such as glass, metal, and cardboard are vehicles for my concept. I am interested in the hierarchies that we set as humans and investigating these boundaries to understand why they have come into existence. With a greater understanding of our position within nature, an empathetic link can be formed. Empathy is not only needed but is crucial in this time of a landscape demanding human change.
