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. A window to a different world -- a better world.
Light of my Life
Neurons, synapses, axioms intertwined. Draws inspiration from 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. This is expressed through the clay's veiny raw texture, and retains 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 an intriguing hybrid cultural space between animal and object. To be frank I want a piece for myself, and desire underpins this piece as much as any of my other works.
