My work often begins with a cut: the metal sheet must first be separated, then manipulated, fabricated, finished. Slicing can edit, omit, and highlight ideas. Such objects are at once present and absent. Utility is featured and undermined. The fragment can recall the totality of a thing while it provokes us to consider the relevance of what is missing, what remains.
