Sculptural & Performative Works
These related sculptural and performative pieces reexamine the habitual ways that we connect to and consume the natural world. Fragmented pieces of wood severed from their environment are carefully mended and pieced back together with varying levels of success. While these gestures are bound to fail, they also suggest the possibility of transformation and renewal.
