Personal Statement
I create paintings inspired by mathematical relationships to measuring, construction, and symmetry through the use of Adobe Illustrator, laser cutting equipment and plastic material. Research into design sustainability of Constructivism art movement encouraged me to mechanically engineer holistic models through modern materials. Reflecting on my own introspective process while producing symmetrical designs, my artwork unveils a meditative language for the viewer in return.
