My work and research is a series of explorations and investigations into the development of technologies, most recently centered around aviation through early flight models, aviation’s lesser known pioneers and the fascination of the early airships.
Historical visual and literary investigation culminates in series of prints that create a dialog between the historical and contemporary perspectives of developing technologies. I begin by rebuilding many of the historical machines in a digital virtual space using 3D modeling in addition to other digital tools. The resulting images are exported into traditional and experimental print medias creating a dialogue between the virtual and the actual, the historical and the contemporary, and science and art. The work addresses my explorations and experiments with materials, 3D space, the traditional verses the digital, and the history of technology.
