| STATEMENT |
|
|
| The outside world contains many amazing things- natural phenomenon, ancient ideas, discarded objects, people in love, and communication on many levels. The world inside us is equally interesting and contains another world- one made up of flesh and blood and which also contains misinterpretations, genetic propensities, events colored by experience, and a mental junkyard that contains memories waiting to be retrieved or abandoned. Things in this internal world are always linking to each other and to the outside world, inspiring new forms. Technology is a great tool for realizing these forms, but imagination is the most important. |

| BIOGRAPHY |
|
|
| I grew up in a small town in Iowa. My work is driven by small town boredom, hanging around junkyards and rivers, and taking things apart (and learning about the world) and then putting them back together (and learning about myself). |
