Reflections: Beyond the Facade

IIn the Reflections series, I use upcycled hard drive platters and motherboards to explore the space between our inner and outer selves.

The experience is intentionally immersive. As you move, the polished surfaces capture and distort the room around you — your own shifting image becomes part of the work. Lit from the side, each piece casts a ghost-like reflection onto the adjacent wall, and I've used non-reflective motherboard components to create deliberate negative space within it. The mirror-like platter insets become focal points within that shadow.

Viewing the sculpture alongside its reflection, you're invited to consider the difference between what we present to the world and what lies beneath. That gap — and the tension within it — is what this series is about.

A Living Surface

The reflective surfaces of these sculptures are in constant dialogue with their environment. Lighting the work casts its reflection across adjoining walls, making the piece felt throughout the room — not just where it hangs.

The art rewards both distance and proximity. From across a room it shifts and moves; up close, the intricate hand-cut fretwork reveals itself. Online, the videos capture the dynamic quality of the work, while the scrim shots offer the clearest view of the surface and craftsmanship.
