Half Contained

Half Contained explores the tension between the organic world and the structures created to control it. A dried tumbleweed pushes beyond an asymmetrical enclosure of industrial metal mesh, secured with metal wire and elevated on a slender piece of steel rebar anchored into reclaimed wood. The natural form appears simultaneously captured and escaping, creating a moment of suspended resistance. Through the contrast of delicate plant material, rigid steel, and weathered wood, the work considers containment, human intervention, environmental pressure, and nature’s persistent instinct to survive.

The Moment It Stops

The Moment It Stops is constructed from a tumbleweed gathered after its movement had ended. The work preserves the instant when momentum gives way to rest, a pause rarely acknowledged in objects defined by motion. By suspending the form rather than containing it, the piece holds tension between drift and grounding, freedom and interruption, passage and presence. The sculpture does not capture; it allows.

Held Between

Held Between brings together two forms shaped by movement and interruption: a fallen branch and a tumbleweed suspended in quiet tension. Removed from their natural paths, each exists between what it was and what it might have become. The work considers the space between motion and stillness, where momentum lingers after movement has ceased. The sculpture remains unresolved, held in suspension.

Tangled Silence

Tangled Silence is constructed from English ivy removed while it was constricting a cedar tree. The work preserves the moment where unchecked growth becomes suffocation, a form of quiet violence that often goes unnoticed. By gathering the vine into a contained sphere, the piece holds tension between harm and restraint, movement and stillness, growth and consequence. The sculpture does not accuse; it pauses.
