My current work in sculpture is driven by contrasts and interactions between the built environment and the natural world, merging abstracted images of water in its various forms – rivers, lakes, clouds and ice – with industrial and architectural structures. I favor simple, malleable materials that allow me to invent construction methods. I craft “skins” by resist-dyeing silk or netting cordage, and integrate them with skeletal frameworks of bamboo, wood or wire.
