“Triptych” | 2021 | My early work consisted of life-scale and miniature figurative sculpture and diorama. The body is something I used like a language, and a tool of surrealism. Capturing an accurate figure is something that came naturally and pleasurably to me, and I will likely continue to work with it for the rest of my career. The following installation was comprised of three dioramas mounted behind a wall. Each figure within stands 6-8” tall. I sculpt these miniatures in oil-clay, then take molds of them in silicone, cast them in urethane resin, and paint them using an airbrush. Additional materials include plaster, human hair, UV adhesive, camera lenses, LEDs, and duvetyne.
