my practice centers on the tension between form and perception. I work with familiar materials—concrete, glass, wood, and steel. Through distortion, twisting, juxtaposition, and spatial disruption, I invite viewers to reconsider the assumptions they hold about the physical world and the objects in it.
My sculptures aim to occupy a space between recognition and disorientation. By transforming materials into unfamiliar structures, I seek to create moments of cognitive pause—instances where the viewer must renegotiate their understanding of what they see. These interruptions in perception are where the work comes alive, prompting questions about utility, permanence, and the constructs we accept as reality.
I am interested in how material choices carry both physical and cultural weight and how subverting expectations can reveal hidden narratives and challenge dominant interpretations. Ultimately, my work is less about providing answers and more about creating a space for inquiry where the viewer is encouraged to engage, reflect, and reimagine the world around them.
As a commercial photographer by training, I arrived in Massachusetts in 2012 looking to expand my artistic practice. During my graduate work in Boston, I sought possibilities for growth across mediums and drew inspiration from the work shown at Boston Sculptors Gallery. Now, I am seeking entrance into Boston Sculptors to be part of this vibrant community, which inspired much of my own work moving from two-dimensional to three-dimensional space. If selected, one of my specific aims will be to scale my work on material, form, and perception for public engagement in larger format settings.
