Wire Work
Working in wire is a natural progression for me technically and conceptually because of my background in printmaking and drawing. As a material, the wire behaves in the same way an ink drawn line describes shapes on paper, or a carved line printed from a wood block. The wire line is bent and formed with needle nose pliers to create the image. I am fascinated with the contrast between the industrial wire and the organic shapes constructed with pure line to form a two-dimensional drawing.
