Individuals are often remembered and
represented by tangible objects. Heirlooms, antiques, inheritances;
these all being words used to describe what is left behind when a person
ceases to exist...
I reinterpret the heirloom by fusing these objects
and their personal history so others can visualize the ghosts of memory
residing in our pasts. The complex moving mechanisms in my pieces enable
the viewer to find delight in uncovering genealogical narrative. This
interaction parallels my own research practice.
