Assemblage Sculpture
This series is comprised of disparate elements that are assembled into unexpected juxtapositions. The objects are connected with the utmost precision, fastened together with threaded rod, washers, and bolts. While the objects are seemingly incongruous, they are integrated in such a way that they flow and some how make sense. The purpose is to reinterpret the ordinary.
Montage
Found objects are used “as is” and combined into simple composites. The materials become transformed as the referential information of the object’s past life is obscured. It is the relationship between the materials that causes a subtext of new meaning and leaves the piece open to metaphoric exploration.
Found Surface Series
A subtle drawing is blended into the natural deterioration of a found material. The drawing is secondary and is only meant to accent the organic qualities of the aged surface. The materials are chosen according to the revealing marks of its past life. Then, a sculptural relief or drawing is blended into the surface. My intention is to highlight the discreet beauty found in the commonly overlooked.
