My time-based sculptures focus primarily on the unique spectral dimension of 'recollection'.

Paying particular attention to those events that line our 'collective memory'.

Small universal moments such as encountering the headlights of on-coming traffic on a dark highway - to larger historic ones - such as the movements of Jackie Onassis as she reacted to the assassination of JFK.

I reinsert these 4D experiences back into physical space, or in many cases discover them hiding in the crevices of found objects and the winding folds of existing architecture.

Revealing not only a complex trail of narratives underlying and flowing through our every day; but more so the unique alchemy of the patterns that can 'trigger' a memory to fill in negative space, and shift the viewing experience into a more active state of emotional and conceptual participation.

Whereby forming a choreography between what is there and what is imagined.
