2018 Sprout, Borealis Festival of Light, Seattle, Wa

A grouping of cast resin sculptures, reminiscent of foliage and lit from within by pulsing LED lights were installed on the Amazon campus during the Borealis Festival of Light. As organic shapes created out of an unnatural material, the installation played with the idea that in the future, the hard lines between natural and man-made may blur.

Created for the Spaceworks program and installed in an empty storefront window, Catacomb is representative of the loss we internalize and carry with us throughout our lives. Funded with the assistance of a Tacoma Artists Initiative Program award.
