White mylar and bird from The Relentless Memorial.... 

I am working on a major installation artwork for September called "Omega." The work deals with plastic pollution and recycling. As part of the work, I am creating these small studies to understand the new materials I have been working with. They are intimate moments of a larger work, and represent a snippet of "order" that opposes the chaos of the installation. Unlike my layered, very detailed and labor-intensive works at Havu Gallery, these smaller works are fragments that represent what we see when we look down at the ground, or in our waste baskets... this beautiful disorder we casually throw away. To me, it is all beautiful madness. This body of work is called "Minutiae."
