Untitled

My work is driven by wonder. I play off the intrinsic qualities of materials creating a vocabulary that is my own. I build layers of paper and/or glass to manipulate light and shadows. The shadows themselves are as much part of the piece as the art that casts them. Like a scientist, I study the materials, pushing and pulling their limitations. The majority of my work is white creating a rainbow of subtleties for stark shadows to frolic. The work is labor intensive and precise while remaining playful and fresh.
