In my recent work I use what are traditionally 2 dimensional materials to articulate 3 dimensional line and shape. Paper, fabric and wire are used in combination to create gestural objects that typically hang in space but are most often visually anchored to the wall.

There is much layering, often with transparent materials. Meshes of all sorts (wire/fabric) introduce rhythmic grids in the midst of more fluid passages. The resulting objects rely on linear elements (drawing in space), delineated negative spaces, as well as denser shapes, to create objects that seem to be in process and in motion—at once graceful and awkward, familiar and unexpected, abstract and associative.
