Much of my practice this year has centered on the human body and patterns occurring in nature.
Aquaslice
Inspired by experiments pressing acrylic ink between glass panes. To me it's a window to a different world -- a better world.
Light of my Life
Neurons, synapses, axioms intertwined. This design came into existence after viewing cerebral scans of people experiencing orgasms in while inside active MRI machines.
Surrender to me Your Still-beating Heart
Surrender to me Your Still-beating Heart is a living, hungry vessel demanding the soul and life of it's author. I wanted to engage in the millennia-long human tradition of conceptualizing the vessel as body. I chose to express this through the clay's veiny raw texture, and retain a wet, post-primordial look.
Ocean Piece
Through this series I seek to synthetically emulate the alien invertebrate bodies of coral. Like fungi, coral lives in a hybrid cultural space between animal and object, which fascinates and intrigues me. To be frank I want a piece for myself, and desire drives this work as much as any of my other works.
