"The essence of my work is the indeterminacy of perception. I am interested in exploring visual perspective and the body’s physical awareness of objects. My sculptures are an investigation of the ambiguity of sight and the certainty of tactility. They are sites where visual sensation and physical presence lead to changing interpretations of space and volume. The sculptures present the dichotomy between illusory and literal spaces. Through these different ways of perception, linked with intuition and reasoning, we come to understand our environment and the things in it.”
