Parametric Tail 2018
Afromosia
24 × 36 × 8 in.
Exhibited at Gowanus Art Walks, NY
CNC-cut layered wood sculpture inspired by biomimicry and oscillation. Designed through parametric modeling in Fusion 360, this piece explores the dialogue between natural forms and digital fabrication.

Brace 2008
Wood, steel, found objects
14 x 12 x 8 in. Exhibited at The Second Avenue Firehouse Gallery, Bay Shore NY
A suspended gesture in steel and wood. Brace captures the memory of rotation, its shadow cast forward like a root system anchoring motion to ground.
Sprawl Core 2006
Locust wood, steel
Approx. 10' × 9' × 8'
Exhibited at Long Island University Hillwood Museum
Wood anchors a lattice of cut steel, assembled to emphasize upward sprawl. Lighting was staged to cast deliberate shadows across the concrete floor, extending the sculpture’s reach beyond its physical mass. These shadows form a secondary system — a root-like reflection that grounds the piece.
Title: Aphid Form 1
Medium: Welded aluminum with rebar stem and steel plate baseTitle: Aphid Form 2
Medium: Welded aluminum with rebar stem and steel plate base
This sculpture merges industrial materials with organic inspiration, evoking both insect and floral forms. The title is a subtle nod to Philip K. Dick, reflecting themes of transformation and fixation beneath the surface.
Straddler 1998
Eucalyptus Root, Pine, Steel
Exhibited at Peggy Phelps Gallery
Claremont, Ca
Straddler reflects an ongoing investigation into the tensions between natural and industrial materials. The use of eucalyptus root recalls the tree’s introduction to Southern California in 1853 as a proposed solution to lumber shortages. A promise that proved impractical due to its difficult workability and later reclassification as an invasive species. By juxtaposing eucalyptus with steel plate, the sculpture engages with histories of adaptation, failure, and persistence embedded in the region’s landscape.
