Morass is a synthesis of drawing and sculpture that converges into a dynamic environment in which line and gravity, light and shadow seem to fluctuate between two- and three-dimensional space that emphasizes weight like hanging everything on overburdened sculptural gallows.

“He looked into the hole, and like any hole it said, Jump.” ― Susan Sontag, The Volcano Lover: A Romance

This work was created during while working at Urban Glass in New York City where I began silkscreen printing portraits with glass enamel that was then melted into hand rolled glass sheets.

Inspired by the Three of Cups Tarot card, which is said to resonate with a spirit of creativity, wisdom, abundance, and harmony. Creating by throwing a white stoneware clay on the wheel, and extruding exaggerated handles to hang these sculptural cups from an oak gallows, a nod to my ancestor a woman accused of witchcraft in Salem.

A queer pentimento is an ongoing series of sculptural assemblages exploring the altar and reliquary forms combining image and artifact.

This series of ceramic, glass and mixed media grottos are loosely based on a beehive form derived from drawings I made of reliquaries and stone carvings I observed while traveling in Italy and France.
