My recent sculptural works reflect a recycling of historical references, interpreted through a use of industrial materials. These works explore boundaries between the organic and constructed worlds, blurring categories of artificial and natural. They are objects both desirous and grotesque, in a dissemblance of beauty and appearances, probing questions into the phenomenology of desire, surface and sublimnity.
