New to the Windows at Susan Hensel Gallery!
OF THE LAND
-->
My work often comes from a place of mind, body, and spirit. As a
sculptor. I use easily accessible materials to create contemporary forms. These
forms are grounded in an organic sensibility interpreted with an element of
transformation. I enjoy exploring philosophical constructs such as:
being/becoming, existence/potential, ways of knowing, universality, and the
lived experience.
I seek to create opportunities for the viewer to engage,
experience, question, and explore one’s connection to self, the world, and
humanity. As a catalyst my art can present ways for the viewer to explore the
daily and breadth of life as well as a relationship to universal consciousness.
I grew up two hours south of the Bridge in North Central
Michigan. As a high schooler, I was a photographer on the yearbook staff,
intending to be the next Margaret Bourke White.
I have worked across the
country in non traditional educational settings, everything from Outdoor
Adventure Education to Elder hostel. I eventually relocated to Mankato,
Minnesota for graduate work. While there, I studied Experiential Education and
obtained a teaching license in Art Education. I currently work with high
schoolers exploring sculptural art forms.
