Writhing Death Cage - Detail

Description

My work reveals an evidence of process, structure, and detail. Ceramics has an ability to be transformed by heat with time, which I exploit by using a variety of clay bodies that yield different results from exposure to the same temperature. Much of the labor comes after the firing, when I chisel or sandblast away any excess or surface to reveal an interior structure. I can then add a new surface through glaze, enamel, or paint and repeat the process again until I am satisfied that there is an evidence of process.

In terms of form, I focus on a point of interest, surrounded by chaotic detail. These points of interest can either be a physical part, or a void, but the result should be the same in that it is a cerebral experience. The exterior or setting where the chaotic detail resides is there to present an overwhelming amount of information, which should pull attention from the focal point resulting in an oscillation between the two parts. I try to include some sort of bodily aspect in much of my work to push this object of evidence into that of a specimen. The organic body does not show evidence in the same way as my process, resulting in a mental fluctuation, which mirrors the push and pull between the focal point and exterior.
