Artwork Style(s)
Conceptually, I am interested in reflecting the unconscious dialogue between the brain and the body, drawing upon the science of embodied intelligence. I am curious about the role the body plays in our emotional perception of the world. How do our bodies influence our minds? How does our corporeal wisdom influence our perception of the world? Investigating these questions through the process of casting, cutting, and reassembling, I mirror the act of adaption, letting my intuition shape the work. I tap into the unconscious guidance of my own body, creating abstract sculptures that reach beyond the rational mind. My materials are a combination of clay, glycerin, found furniture and thread. The forms I create have a unique interdependence with each other, weaving a seductive language of unpredictability and playfulness.
