Art & Installations
As a designer and communicator, it's important to me that my art installations are interactive. My art entices viewers to fill in formal gaps with spatial and visual sensory connections that bring new and unexpected views. These gaps in the art encourage viewers to look closer and explore details in each sliced composition while still offering enough information to see real and imagined gradients.
​
Viewing the images as presented helps people to see details in landmark pieces that they have otherwise never noticed, such as architectural or natural patterns, lines, colors, textures and shapes. It is a way to reintroduce viewers to something they already know, yet allows them to view it in new ways, intensifying and renewing the values of the unique sites.
​
My art installations are printed dye sublimation onto aluminum and steel-framed with security hardware, ensuring they are secure and safe for public spaces. Prints on paper are also available.
