THE WARNING CALL
Metal scraps and cans
30”x 72”x31”
2024
Statement
This piece is based on the theme “nature versus nature” referring to Mother Nature and human nature. Through this piece, I experiment and explore with different mediums to reflect my thoughts and perspective in creating a possible balance between human activities and how this affects the earth.
DWAR द्वार
Waste: plumbing pipe, aluminum ducts, copper wire
70” x 52” x 82”
2024
Statement
The Nepali word Dwar translates loosely as the gate to the temple, which one passes through and is then purified.
From the discarded waste emerges an abstract iteration of nature, questioning what we value as beauty. The form resembles a doorway covered in vines, and invites the viewer to the serenity of the present moment by channeling our attention to that which may be often overlooked in our busy lives; the bright reflection of the sun or gentle dance of the breeze.
BALANCE
Waste: steel, metal scraps, cans, plastic
29” x 82” x 40”
2024
Statement
Taking time to pause allows us moments to reconnect to our passions and dreams. The busyness of life can lead to losing sight of what is important and forgetting the things we love. Adopting this inner posture and mindful practice brings balance and stability to what truly matters in life.
METAMORPHOSIS
Waste: steel & aluminum
56” x 63” x 16”
2024
Statement
‘Metamorphosis’ is a transformative space, as the thoughtful repetition of sequences reflects the shifting light and transience of the sky.
The use of resilient elements that withstand time converges with the concept of metamorphosis drawing one into a state of deep reflection.
MOUNTAINS OF NEPAL
Waste: Steel & stainless steel
15” X 36” X 1.5”
2024
Statement:
Inspired by the natural world, I explore the tradition of landscape painting through non-traditional materials and techniques. The traditional metalworking processes of welding, sanding, and grinding create textures and produce the illusion of depth through the reflection of light. Reclaimed steel and stainless steel are malleable, plastic and forgiving in nature and I love the way light plays off etched and scratched surfaces of the metal even after being discarded.
PORTAL
Waste: Steel
26” X 80” X 1”
2024
Statement
A view through the center of this sculpture allows one to connect to the
repetition of circular shapes in the architecture. Looking through the sculpture in the other direction connects the viewer to the surrounding organically shaped trees. Observing both narratives allow one to consider both architecture and nature as signs of renewal and regeneration in community.
LITTLE SCRAPPER
Waste: Aluminum, steel
77” X 48” X 29”
2024
Statement
This artwork is a gentle prompt to discover happiness in the seemingly ordinary, drawing inspiration from the delight a frog experiences during rainfall.
Just as the frog finds joy in the small drops, this piece encourages embracing the simplicity of life’s moments for a sense of satisfaction.
