Six 8 foot long aluminum “paper airplane” forms placed throughout the campus. With the happenstance of placement guiding the concept this work dovetails the curiosity and enthusiasm contained within childhood development with the individual pursuit of knowledge found within higher education. The airplane is an icon for the potential of what can be explored if curiosity and enthusiasm are maintained.
Located outside of Sirrine Hall across from the Fernow Cafe, is an abstracted welded steel sculpture
that fluctuates between a figure and microscope and is sited at a busy pedestrian walkway.
This work is composed of photos and text, which are meant to explore the three ages of humanity. Contained within the installation, which comprises all three landings of a stairwell, are 35 images which vary in scale and include a variety of color and black and white photographs.
This work is a 21foot high silo form constructed of brick and steel. Inside is a bronze marker with a call number, which corresponds with an artist book housed in the reference section of Cooper Library. The book contains rich black and white images of a field grasses in a variety of compositions and is a beautiful companion to the silo form.
This work is comprised of 84 tiles that are 10 inches square spanning the length of a 60 foot curved wall outside the large auditorium in Hardin Hall. The work explores significant events and various academic programs unique to the history of Clemson University.
"The literal content of my work has to do in part with the interdependency of species within ecosystems. I use intentional scale discrepancies to reinforce this idea. Large mammals are given no more physical prominence than insects or other small creatures. The surface treatment of the individual mixed media figures implies they are corroded iron. This creates a Pompeii-like archaeological context for the work and may metaphorically reference the fragility and fleetingness of life, which includes not only individual organisms, but ecological systems as a whole."
