The psychological state of a society is illuminated by the structures it creates and how those structures are used. My sculpture employs scaleddown and streamlined versions of existing architectural forms re-contextualized or re-presented so that their potential for social influence becomes more evident. Repeated architectural choices around the world reveal a set of universal concerns and desires: modularity, order, efficiency, and convenience. The sculptural objects I create call into question the validity of adopting these characteristics as ideals.
