Artist Statement

My work explores the ‘super synthetic’ look of the digital technologies
that saturate our lives, in relation to tactile and sensory experience. I
aim to subvert the materials and tools of high-tech culture by using
laborious and tactile processes. The forms in this diorama are influenced by animated computer models of microscopic processes in cells, created by Harvard Medical School’s ‘Biovisions’ program in the early 2000s. My sculptural forms are made using the plastic filaments intended for 3d digital printing. By using a ‘3dpen’ I have replaced the computer with the human hand in a kind of nostalgic gesture. Through this combination of materials and forms I want to create an uneasy optical space where craft traditions such as weaving, knitting, basket making are juxtaposed with abstracted virtual space and biomorphic forms.
