Abstract

I create sculpture that reflects a sense of journey and place. Each journey and place is different and is derived from a life experience. These life experiences reflect specific elements of events that have evolved from family and friends. My recall of these past experiences allows for the bridging of the past and the present through my sculpture. I create these sculptures with materials that evoke feelings of the past, including: old wood and sticks, weathered rawhide, wire, and rope; as well as found rocks and soil. I also use materials with historical precedent, such as clay and bronze. Upon these I apply paint and patina in such a manner that they impart a sense of age. These materials are conducive to the relationships I create between people and sculpture, past and present, and journey and place. With these relationships in mind, I plan to base my thesis show around the concepts of 'bridge' and 'house.'
