About Me	Energy and transmutation are key words in my work. I am interested in the potentiality of the moment suspended between presence and absence; forming an interim space between opposing forces. Currently my work explores how two seemingly opposing elements may exist at the same time and the movement that is happening in the space between the two. The use of the square as a construct for the natural becomes a metaphor for the membrane or conduit between forms that would appear as separate yet are connected. The relationships between different yet similar elements becomes a key trajectory to explore how certain materials interact, change, shift, or renew themselves. The aim of my installations is also to create energy systems that posit new dimensions to otherwise static materials. For instance, in one of my installments a video of a room is taken from darkness to light with the sound of a tuning fork creating a feedback loop reaching 528 Hertz- a particular frequency used in Vibration Therapy to re-align human DNA. While the room is captured as a non-moving image, the sound and fading of light creates movement that activates the space. And the use of different modalities of healing practice, such as Vibration Therapy, references our natural movement towards order within undercurrents of chaos. From the experience of my work I wish to evoke inquiry and allow audiences to be confronted by a raw sense of what it means to be alive.
