My work is rooted in paper cutting. I use a pencil and an exacto knife - cutting from a single sheet of material. The reductive process always begins with a loose kinetic drawing, directly onto the material to be cut. Deciphering what will be negative and positive space throughout drawing sessions - what emerges needs to have both the structural integrity to retain its form as well as work aesthetically; having a “flow” that’s expressive of the initial line drawing.
