Psychological Body

Body is the center of my artistic practice. Whether it is abstract or representational my work revolves around the body’s fragility and resilience as it faces internal, external, or psychological factors. Many of the patterns and structures in my work draw from a micro view of our bodies. My installations approach from a macro perspective that incorporates the viewer’s experience into the instillation. Scale and sculptural placement directly confront the viewers body in relation to space.
The following Artworks are photographs of installations and sculptures built with the intent of being photographed. The use of the camera assists with framing a visual personal narrative as I share my queer story. The narrative holds tension and drama as I explore the thin line that separates an individuals private and public life and how space heavily effects this.
