In a world built from extractions and inheritances, nothing we encounter or build stands alone.

Portrait of a Chair investigates how objects participate in the world beyond their current form, and emphasizes that each form is a node within environmental, social, and technical networks.

Using sculptural forms as narrative instruments, these works reference extraction, transformation, and continued becoming through manipulation of natural elements and abstracted scaffolds. It reveals how all things are held up by systems larger than themselves.
