A series of steel and concrete sculptures that explore the natural phenomena of gravity and its symbolism with a universal spiritual force. The major focus on this work is using steel as a medium to imagine the invisible force of gravity twisting space-time: The contortions in space and time relate to our human experience both as a separation and longing to connect to our larger the universe.
