dcterms.abstractFor the past three years, while an MFA student at Stony Brook University, I have pursued an intense study of sculptural work in the medium of ceramic. My goal was to create large-scale ceramic installations. Theses installations comprised of many ceramic pieces I meticulously sculpted and carved to reference the fragility, beauty and finite existence of the human body as it relates to earthly landscapes. My aim has been to imbue an exhibition space with a sense of reference and ambiguity, allowing the viewer of the large scaled installed work to experience the work independent of direction. I deliberately and painstakingly construct my sculptures to look as if they came from the earth, that is, wood that has been weathered, stone-like fossils that show debris and pigment, aged bone, visual evidence of their time on earth.
