Graduate School Work - 2003: conversations within a landscape Through the progression of five sculptures, the changes in the landscape over a 120 year period of my family's land outside of Phoenix, Arizona is displayed. - 2001-2002: timelines This is the history of a single field on our farm from 1915-2010.

Pre Graduate work - 1998-1999: the concrete years These works are a selection from my first years creating art.
