Drop Garden II, 2012

 

I am interested in the way the garden becomes a space for growth, renewal and transformation. I have memories from childhood of going outside into the garden by myself early in the morning. Drop Garden II is composed of fantastical biomorphic objects in the garden landscape. The forms are alone and peaceful and become a stand-in for a figure or for myself.

 

Drop Garden II was installed at the Lincoln Park Conservatory in Chicago, IL as part of the Form and Flora III exhibition. This exhibition was part of the 23rd International Sculpture Conference sponsored by the International Sculpture Center and Chicago Sculpture International.
