Studio 305
My artistic medium is universal . . . it’s the stuff that we all have touched. When young, this material eclipsed all of my toys. Taped together and colored upon, it was used to build the fortresses that concealed me, sustaining a world where the seeds of my imagination could only grow. Within boxes made of this material I store stuff, mail stuff, hide stuff. Flimsy perhaps, yet this material can stand the test of time. Cardboard. My work is rooted in being true to this material and to the others that I work to reclaim from the waste stream of life. To these rather mundane yet delicate materials I bring a meticulous, technical rigor. It’s intended to be transformative, magical.
