From the Heartland
My work reflects the landscape I grew up in and my interest in the underlying structure of natural objects. Growing up in Indiana, with its expansive skies and industrial structures, nurtured my appreciation for clean, minimal forms. The Midwest's vast fields and skies serve as a visual canvas to power lines, granaries, and silos - structures wrought by pure function. These immense objects impressed upon me the feeling that structure itself is beauty, and the bare bones of a form are often the beautiful parts.
