My practice stems from a fascination with internal bodily processes and the sentimentality that is attached to the absorption of sound, food, and the passage of time. The capacity to which these elements, when translated through the body, can create a dualistic relationship between love and decay. Through referencing personal memories that have elicited physical sensations, I strive to recreate a specific feeling of warmth out of the elements that have either affected, integrated into, or originated from my body. Through employing varying mediums within my installation practice I draw my main influences from personal anecdotes about my family and by exploring relationships with sentimentally charged objects from my home, reconstructing them from various processes of casting, sculpting and metal work. Through the amalgamation of edible sculptures formed from sugar and gelatine; as well as light analogue circuits I attempt to show the miniscule connections between the external world and internal, their states existing in a constant flux of emittance and absorbance from one another.
