This series, influenced by the precise yet abstract language of 3D printing and scanning, explores the genesis of being. Mirroring the neutral shades of gray in unrendered space of 3D software, these fragmented forms emerge from a black void, representing the absent space of potential. While grounded in the physical touch of clay, where every fingerprint speaks to its tactile origin, the work is deliberately framed and shot to exist in a virtual realm, bridging the intimate reality of material with the boundless abstraction of digital creation.

Chet

16mm film. 2017

Chet explores knowing a loved one only through other’s memory and the attempt to construct the idea you’re given. The installation space is divided in half. On one side of a dividing wall, I loop a silent 16mm film. On the other side, a cellist performs. The film is a digital animation converted into 16mm and resembles a Muybridge study. The movement is a subject, digitally sculpted, holding a violin and preparing to play. The film cuts just before he begins to play. While watching the silent film, the viewer can hear the cellist perform through the wall.
