About The Artwork
Clara Rockmore: A Lithuanian classical violin prodigy but also the most renowned theremin player in the world. After moving to the United States, Clara met fellow immigrant Léon Theremin who introduced her to his gesture-controlled instrument. Though electronic music was uncommon in formal music settings in the 1930s, Rockmore performed as a soloist with the New York Philharmonic, the Philadelphia Orchestra, and the Toronto Symphony. Rockmore described her style of theremin play: “You must not only hit a note, but you must hit the center of it. You cannot register any of your internal emotion at all. You cannot shake your head, for instance, or sway back and forth on your feet. That would change your tone.” Clara is made from the pages of the original Claravox Theremin Manual, acrylic, ink, and resin.

Viewers are often initially drawn to my work because of the bold colors, patterns and movement, but upon closer inspection they are pulled into a world of tiny details, one bleeding into the next, creating a fantastical narrative from the bits of the original source material that remain unobstructed. I begin each piece by deconstructing a single source material so that I no longer see it in the form it was originally presented, looking to uncover repeating forms, images, colors and ideas that will form the basis of the artwork. As I start to build the layers of the artwork the process is less an act of collage as a re-weaving of the original source material in a form that allows the viewer to interact with the ideas contained in those materials in a new way. Perhaps my favorite comment I regularly get from visitors: “I could get lost in your work for hours.”
