Abstract
With this exhibition, I strive to create sculptures that reveal beauty and act as a visual reminder of the destruction we have caused by decades of industrial negligence and greed. Using the principles and elements of design I hope to create visually stimulating objects that resembles the beauty found in the hills of Appalachia. A dialogue is fostered that influences future generations by bringing to light the reality of our past transgressions.
