Spheres
This series explore our perception of space, causing the viewer to make assumptions about the location of these forms within the glass. Circular forms and spheres have always been a big part of my visual language and these shapes allow me to discuss issues around nature and biology in addition to issues of depth perception. Spheres can refer to microscopic spherical pollen or human cell structures, speaking of proximity, over crowding, sequencing and exponential growth.

Moire Pattern
These works examine how we position the image within space and how we interpret the incomprehensible spatial depth created by these patterns. A large-scale interference patterns are produced when an opaque ruled pattern with transparent gaps is overlaid by a cast glass lenticular lens. For the moiré interference pattern to appear, the two patterns must not be completely identical, but rather displaced, rotated, or have slightly different pitch.
