For a long time, I have been inspired by nature, oceanic life, and the microscopic. Recently, the work I have been creating embodies and is inspired by water — the currents, the reflections that lie on its surface, and coral reefs.
This installation has come at a time that allowed me to look deeper into the what and the why of my work. A dive into my thoughts. The immersive elements of this work allow the viewer the opportunity to dive a little deeper into my process and my new direction.
To differentiate this work from that of my past, I am incorporating a lighting element that divides viewing by night and day and a unique soundscape to complete a visceral, but artificial environment — one that feels as if it is truly alive. Creating an opportunity to become more intimate with my work in which each element represents a deeper plunge, under the surface, as the viewer encounters the darker blues and purples, and into the lighter elements as they resurface.
