Since my trip to Nevada, I have been thinking a lot about the way that natural structures grow or the way that erosion creates a set of fractal patterns on the earth. The new work is based incorporating ideas of fractal growth in some of the language of the tiles.
It is important to me that the language of the works is being generated by the geometry of the tiles and the principles of growth. The space of the floor is naturally incorporated into the space of the work.
Since I began thinking more about Land Art projects, I have been very interested in the idea of boundaries. In some boundary situations a series of related objects can be used to define the space of an object that has different kind of geometry. Often that geometry can be incorporated into the space of the room itself. The objects create a boundary that is not exclusive and does not comprise the individual integrity of each of its units.
