Visually, a lot of your recent work seems to signify constellations of relationship. To what extent does your work reflect a perspective on social interaction?

Much of my work has dealt with issues of relationships, either directly or tangentially, over the past few years. I am interested in the continually changing dynamics of identity through the interplay of relationships. An obvious example of a system that is perpetually changing is a social network. I approach my work from the same perspective, that the various elements of a piece physically pull on each other and impact how the other is viewed and created.
