My work investigates how functional systems develop their own formal language—how purpose, material, and process merge to generate form. Working primarily with metal, I employ a range of techniques to reveal the underlying logic of built structures. Rather than concealing signs of construction, these sculptures foreground traces of labor and technical decision-making. Material behavior, process constraints, and structural necessity guide the development of each piece. Through this approach, my work reveals the interplay between form and function, material and process—inviting viewers to consider how objects communicate their making and their purpose.
