My work is an attempt to contain chaos in an ordered aesthetic.  Process and engagement with traditional and industrial materials conflate with science and architecture in an exploration of the underlying geometry of nature and the built environment. The resulting artwork is set in a metaphysical context that is often ambiguous with works resembling alien landscapes, star maps to unspecified regions of space, or abstract structures alluding to probes and satellites. My practice is eclectic and frequently generative.  Temporary installations produce photographs, videos, and/or parts that reappear in later sculptures, and vice versa sculptures may appear in larger multimedia configurations. In my process sculpture, photography, video, and drawing/painting mimic each other within a self referential hybrid language of assemblage and trompe l'oeil.  Current bodies of work are–interactive optical sculptures, unstable topographical surfaces, and installations intended to present chaos as a believable visual system.
