dc.description.abstractI make drawings. Even if I use color and three-dimensional elements in my work, I think of my practice to be that of drawing. The questions I attempt to explore in my work are grounded in the contemporary art discourse that combines two and three dimensional practices into an elastic definition of drawing. My works play off of flat surfaces and into space serving as a confrontation that questions the definitions that separate two dimensional (painting/drawing) and three dimensional (sculpture/installation) practices. In response to specific locations and architectural structures, I fluctuate between perspective and physical presence. I reflect upon a particular set of structural conditions set forth by existing spaces (comers, rafters, stairs, ceilings, walls), and engage possibilities within those spaces with specific materials, gestures and divisions. All of the elements in my work converge to suggest singular situations or moments that are between flux and stasis. My works play upon the notion that psychological spaces are comprised of experience, perception and memory. As architectural interventions on the familiarity of spaces and perspective, drawings play out in sequences of destruction and reinvention. Preexisting perceptions of structures and spaces are broken down to create the illusion of something more fluid, vulnerable and impermanent. My work presents the possibility that the real, the actual and the illusion that one element may or may not signify a particular reality can exist within a singular space.
