Statement

An experience of space begins with the relationships between elements of an environment and its architecture, but more importantly, the viewer’s increased awareness of their own relationship to those same features. I am interested in how our physical reality can be perceived, and how our internal reality can be affected. I often explore this felt energy by creating immersive, site-specific installations that relate concepts of space to contemporary time. Overall, the combination of two-dimensional and three-dimensional works I create open a dialogue about our lived environment(s).
