Deconstructed Wave II
wood, watercolor paper, gesso, paint, sawdust, wood frames
52" x 46" x 39.25"
2015

This piece expanded upon a sculpture I had made at the beginning of the semester. This was an exercise in building, to see how large I could construct the wave forms while still maintaining structural integrity. Contrasting the sharp geometry of the frame and wooden structure with the wave forms, I used the repetition of form to create a sense of power. Depicting abstracted elements leaping out from picture frames, this piece explores ideas of the unbridled energy of nature.
