If blogging were a sculptural practice “Don’t Ready to Die Anymore” might be the outcome. Observed relationships are presented as a narrative system divided into vignettes, with each piece reflecting collective memories and the rapid changes taking place culturally and environmentally.

The works examine the interconnections of topics ranging from the violent separation of Yugoslavia, to the rapid identity and environmental change in the Disney film Cool Runnings, or even the memorial culture resulting from the murders of Christopher Wallace and Tupac Shakur. These observations all take place through a hyper-nostalgic lens. The resulting images, framed by media and pop culture, are cropped by lack of understanding and experience.

The sculptural works are constructed with mixed materials, medium density fiberboard being the most widely used. The material is machined or hand carved, with varied materials and found objects introduced as necessary. In addition to the sculptural elements, the show includes video works and will launch a web-based project: dontreadytodieanymore.com. The video works parallel the sculptural elements, both in process and content. Through digital randomization and user input, the web-based project will create a complicated system of relationships between image and text.
