It’s not really about running away, it’s about the desire to run away.

Formative experiences spent along the Florida coast continue to impact the theoretical parameters of sculptural installations I create. The work has a soft-focus on the horizon, which I view as the convergence or separation of two dissonant bodies. Whether it be land and sky or life and mortality. These physical and theoretical in-between spaces, gaps, fissures and collisions are (un)-rooted in queer theory.  

Ambiguity or disorientation occurs in the middle stage of a rite of passage, when participants no longer hold their pre-ritual status but have not yet begun a transition to the status they will hold when the rite is complete. During this rites’ liminal stage participants stand at the threshold between their previous way of structuring their identity, time or community and a new way, which completing the rite establishes. 

Exploring what is possible in these untethered zones, allow for everything and nothing all at once.
