Across the Divide
Installation at Gwangju Art Museum, Gwangju, South Korea, 2005
Across the Divide is a dialogue between past and present, east and west using architectural elements. I focused on details of elements found in religious buildings: the floral design found in traditional Korean shrines and temples, and the grid found on the New York Presbyterian Church in Sunnyside, Queens.

The City Visited is composed of 1-inch square drawings depicting architectural details of the urban landscape.
Lines
Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico, San Juan, Puerto Rico, 2006
Lines, an eight-part work, are views of passing clouds seen from a stationary point of view. The foreground is crossed by power lines, which are placed in the same position in all the works. The panels are paired. The second of each pair shows a subtle shift in time as clouds pass by.
