Pataphysics. The science of those things which are beyond the schemata of Science, those bizarre inhabitants of the everyday which through art are transformed, become adventurers, access that special part of the imagination glowing with the aura of that which you have seen before, but has never before been seen. Materiality, the poetics of juxtaposition, the transmutable memory of objects and forms. How a surface can change over time and an object can take on new meaning in the meeting of others both found and made.
My practice revolves, paradoxically, around an axis of ambiguity and the perilous excitement of not being quite sure, on the precipice of uncertainty which keeps art alive, keeps its evolution in motion. My work embodies a sense of its own untold narrative, of secrets which cannot be described in words yet hang heavy in their visual qualities and the phenomenological experience of shared space between sculpture and viewer.
