‍I sandblast.I make a lot of studies, eroding things.Parameters for making the studies are simple and flexible, oftentimes changing midway to further emphasize some developing trait. There's nothing technological about the work, nothing especially complicated in the gestures that generate the studies. I approach these things as opportunities for working out ideas and techniques, and for working off pent up energy. As far as the forms go, the process lends itself to embodiments of time passing, suggesting long weathered things like stony outcroppings, ventrifacts, yardangs, and ancient bodies in pieces, illegible tablets in arcane languages and ruined temples.
