CYCLES: Within and Upon Us
Wave-Column,
2020, ceramic, 20 x 1140 x 110 cm,
made at EKWC, NL
Cycles is a series of works that are created with an aesthetic that reflects a body in continuous adaptation, transformation, and gradual understanding. Communicating a rotating pattern of continuous cycles within and upon us, the works envelop personal, emotive and environmental processes. The forms honor the element of water and complement the logic of waves.

* Exhibited at Howling Pancakes, Showroom MAMA, Rotterdam NL, 2018
I was invited to participate in a group exhibition at Showroom MAMA, Rotterdam, by temporary collective NoDoughCollective, to create site specific work which relied entirely on the use of scrap, recycled and donated materials. Through the course of one week, we transformed the space into a testing ground for intuitive making, site specific exploration and creative collaboration. My work meant to be a ground portal for my abstract self, which hung above. I took the opportunity to create intuitively and to materialize introspective processes regarding my new adaptation and move to the Netherlands early 2018.
