Abstract: I am fascinated by the delicious peculiarities of the everyday and the surprising richness to be found in the minutiae. Using sculpture and installation, I create immersive worlds that function as a stranger, more highly saturated version of reality. The work is made using mass-produced and throwaway materials that have been transformed and reimagined in order to envision novel and implausible outcomes for ordinarily overlooked objects.
