Expanse

Burning Man 2023
Mare Island Artyard 2024


Hand-carved from two solid, fire-salvaged redwood logs, Expanse explores geometry as humanity’s primal language - a framework through which we’ve long defined ourselves and the world around us. Expanse draws inspiration from Vitruvius, the 1st-century BCE Roman architect who articulated the relationship between the human body, sacred architecture, and geometry in The Ten Books on Architecture. Fourteen centuries later, Leonardo da Vinci echoed and refined those ideas in his iconic Vitruvian Man sketch, linking ideal proportions to the cosmos. Expanse carries this lineage forward, and beyond. It reimagines the human figure not as a static, symmetrical ideal, but as a dynamic, feminine form breaking free from the rigid boundaries of classical geometry. The sculpture honors the historical narratives that shaped our understanding of the body, while opening space for new, organic, and ethereal expressions of human potential. In doing so, Expanse invites us to step outside inherited frameworks and into a more fluid, expansive understanding of self and form.
