Anxiety
2014
Aluminum, thread, feathers
Approximately 6x10 feet

My concept for this installation was to freeze the moment that follows an attack in a way that represents anxiety and the mentality of its prolonged duration and increasing intensity.  The viewer's experience is simultaneously calm  and aggressive by means of elegant shadows but sharp, jagged angles and remnants of destruction beneath the arrows.  The large scale represents a lack of control or containment.
