The works discussed and shown herein are an investigation into the properties and possibilities of materials. Prompted by a sense of playfulness and exploration, these works build upon and combine the fields of Dadaism and Minimalism in a manner that explores the conceptual properties of material. This exploration takes places through destructive processes, exposing the interior of solid matter to a thoughtful consideration of its development, underlying structure, and the effect of forces being applied to the materials, both internally and externally.
