Clay forms winding on the walls of the studio move across the space and onto the floor. On the floor are small shelves made of clay. On the floor are many small pieces that were created as a time project. My aim was to make in clay and seek to know God more. My studio practice became a space for prayer. This project was an exploration of my faith as a Christian, investigating how I could know God more through clay.

there are two feminine figures intertwined on four conjoined canvases. both are rosey in color tone, but one side has a more realistic value scale on the left while the other is inverted on the right - the inverted woman is laying her head in the other's shoulder. the woman on the left is emphasized as the canvas has been cut to follow the lines of her form, the woman on the right is behind a grid of scaled up skin cells. unseen by a singular image, you can use a uv flashlight to expose the hidden veins and skeletons within each figure.
