Sculptures / One by One
A series of sculptures made from discarded rubber traffic cone bases and thousands of dressmaker pins hammered home one-by-one. The maze-like intuitive placement evokes a search for belonging.

* Early time of the Pandemic, I began creating sculptures from salvaged rubber traffic cone bases, found in my neighborhood. Hammering thousands of dressmaker pins into the deteriorated surface one by one—an unplanned, intensely repetitive, and tactile process—opened new paths for exploring dimensionality and how both the process and material transform through continued interaction.
