Found texts are transcribed from various sources -- everyday life, philosophy and art. Using fragmented sentences, language is presented elusively to suggest its transformative and buoyant qualities. Clipped works in patent leather and vinyl present the slipperiness of language, while crocheted, rubberized nylon and cast and forged metal comically twist and curl in animated space.

Using fully saturated inks, drawings transcribe my ideas onto paper. Created as liquid spillages from the mouth, the drawings are active in form and visual vibrations inferring the malleable quality language continually reveals. Forms and ideas undulate between structure and elusiveness -–implying that language is under constant r/evolution; reshaping our world physically and imaginatively. In these works I attempt to bring forth the temporal attributes language offers as it articulates and names our world.
