Urban Repetition
Solo Exhibition at Red Mountain Gallery 2/2023-3/2023
Truckee Meadows Community College, Reno, NV
I amble through the city in search of illuminations: silent monuments presenting symbolic form and human decision. My process begins through isolating specific moments and details found in the urban landscape through photo documented walks. The city’s concrete gridded layout, road signals, paint colors and built textures weave together a familiar pattern: an urban fabric from which I can pull apart the individual pieces. I grant a spatial story to these accumulations through my sculpture. I look at repetition, shape and texture. I am interested in how nature is represented within the city structure and how people connect to the constructed landscape.
