About the work:
This series of work, begun in 2005, is a three-dimensional exploration of some of the formal elements in my paintings. Although they began as investigations in making painting more physical, they have become for me abstractions of some of the ideas explored in my other work. They suggest digitized body parts or small cluster bombs. The combination of their geometric qualities as well as sanguine qualities of their coloring adds to this.
