About

Predominantly working with steel rods that are connected through welding, I create sculptures which play with a continuous line that explores movement, flow, rhythm and pace. The soft flowing curves and loops that interweave with each other feel weightless, juxtaposing the nature of the material, leading to speculation of the making. Along with this, the continuity of the line denies the possibility of knowing where the start and end is, probing the viewer to delve further into investigating the work.

With these sculptures, an installation is created that embodies the illusion of anamorphosis. Painted forms warp and stretch across the environment, in order for them to become encapsulated into the object to resolve into a single plane. This moment of it becoming one and the same plane only happens from a specified viewpoint predetermined by me. During this transition, it essentially transforms and flattens three-dimensional elements, like the sculpture and the architecture itself, to become momentarily two-dimensional. In this sense, it is important to note that architecture plays a role in the installations, as the illusion can become more exaggerated across multiple surfaces that range in depths.

As a consequence of the illusionistic device, the audience is immersed into an oscillation between spaces, distorting their perception of space.  In return the viewer becomes an active participant through their involvement to discover this single moment where all the elements fall into place.
