ARTISTS STATEMENT: 

• The escapist allure of immersive environments drives my work, which orients the viewer in a place of comfort and curiosity. The vibrant colors, reductive imagery, and illustrated movements within the “Flow Chart” series of installations are deceptively simple, derivative of early video games, pinball machines, mass transit maps, and schematic diagrams. Within this framework, one soon begins to uncover the world's underpinnings: a rules-based system of sculptural parameters, compositional logic, and spatial relationships.

SCIENTIFIC CONTEXT: In progress

DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY: 

• The Department and SIUE are committed both to quality education and to creative scholarship. Both undergraduate and graduate students are strongly encouraged to work with faculty in research projects and other scholarship. (link to Chemistry)
