Assemblage Sculpture
My assemblage constructions are a direct reflection of the childhood play I am constantly seeking. By using materials from our early crafting days to build diorama-like spaces, I aim to trigger a memory of grade school art class in my audience. This memory includes the sense of play, the smell, and the taste of the paste. The process of building these structures is a reenactment of the memory I have of constructing spaces for my toys, a task I took on when store-bought doll houses or plastic castles couldn't meet my imagination’s demands.
