Untitled Bird

It is in the process of stripping down and focusing where the environment becomes sterile and stark.It is in this environment where the details become obvious and where naturalism and architecture is faced quietly and scientifically. Empirical processes are fictionalized and the affect of minimalism is played out in a controlled space that makes spectacles of the given objects. Using minimal tools, colors, and objects the rhetoric is minimized and becomes primarily concerned with formalism. After this concern the subject is rooted in architectures opposition to nature and humans manifestation of this opposition, including mine.
