Several years ago, I downloaded a free version of a 3D modeling program and found an ideal design process. I began to focus on what I love most--the invention and interplay of bubbly, growing, wandering forms. I have long been trying to achieve a synthesis of organic and mechanical form--a merging of nature and technology. I found this to be an intrinsic quality of computer aided design and manufacturing. With this discovery, and the mysterious language of coded geometry, I was able to expand upon my earliest artistic interest--pure biomorphic abstraction. It was not long before I began searching for ways to get these forms out of the computer and into real space. From the 3D prints to the inflated sculptures—my work grows out of this process of research and discovery.

Navigating disparate industries often presents unknown challenges. Each time I venture into a new area, the exploratory work and problem solving become part of the creative process. As I learn of new technology, I discover adventurous technicians who are eager to engage in creative collaborations. To my delight, the partnerships that develop have also become inherent to my art making.
