My work balances control and spontaneity. The forms and compositions are inspired by geometry and give me a clean slate to display moments of change and transformation. Intentionally cutting, ripping, and stretching of the clay paired with gestural slip and brush strokes allows for a natural sense of movement. These formulated decisions yield irregular results. Disruption of the static forms gives them more dynamic surfaces and energy. Im completely fascinated with experimentation and process and use my understanding of the materials to explore the relationship between fluidity and structure.
