Within Matter

The Within Matter series explores my ongoing fascination with the intersection between our material reality as physical beings and the less tangible space of our emotional and psychological experience. The figures in this work are young, captured in various moments of transcendence, where the abstraction of their forms invites us to question where their physicality begins and ends. These works invite us to question the parameters of our material existence and whether our other dimensions also reside in that space. Each work is created from a UV Flatbed digital print on a translucent panel of glass, mounted on an architectural steel base. The freestanding nature of the works allows light to pass through the imagery and for viewers to experience the works more as a series of sculptures than as photographs.
