Title:Undefined

Description: Establishing connections to the past is how we learn. We always create boundaries as we define new things. I've been experimenting with intermediate materials like wax to find the realm of undefined. Through the lost wax casting process, I link glass and metal in a contrasting way. In this organic and chaotic collaboration, I find a state and a space that is undefined and unbounded.

Title:Dancing Wave

Description: Dancing waves breaking over rocks as currents bring nutrient rich waves from different directions round islands and reefs as I dive in the Galapagos, creating water and spray displays. This attracts a wealth of sea life and brings me great happiness.
