Sculpture

SCULPTURE These are object-based works. They usually contain fewer elements and the subject area and idea is more limited than in the installation pieces. Unlike the installation pieces, the viewer is neither surrounded by nor changes the physicality of these works. It is my goal to activate the viewer to move around the sculpture while the work physically stays the same.
