Discarded furniture and utilitarian objects represent an archive of the remembered past; the contents of your mother's roll-top desk, table settings of a final meal shared with loved ones, or rusty tools from a workshop shed.  These domestic items can serve as historical icons animating and triggering associations. They are traces of what we leave behind, and are the building blocks for this series of sculpture. 

For the frameworks, recycled chair and table parts are assembled, papered, and coated with texture.  Arranged in non-linear movements across the walls, they become domestic stages for the interaction of objects and the drifting passage of time. 

The cups, vessels, tools and utensil forms evolved through the process of experimentation, layering color and texture with a mix of materials and paper pulp. Some objects are purposely altered allowing for transition and repurpose. Many of the household surfaces are visible while others are buried, erased, or altered to mimic the shifting nature of narrative memory.
