For more than two decades, my work has centered on a single question: how do opposing forces coexist within a single form?

The human figure serves as the ideal site for this investigation. It operates under physical law yet responds to will.

Equilibrium, as I understand it, is not symmetry in the decorative sense. It is the condition under which oppositions sustain active relation. Calm and tension coexist. Angular rigidity encounters flowing softness. Openness balances withdrawal. Stability emerges not from uniformity, but from holding contradictions in sustained relation.

In the photographic work, this question was examined through light, geometry, and framing. The body was treated as a structural variable—capable of adaptation under constraint. Over twenty-five years, seven series explored this capacity systematically: Triangles and Horizontals isolated fundamental geometric principles—angular and continuous. Continuum and Reflections then achieved synthesis through complementary operations: formal integration of discrete parts into unified whole, and psychological recognition that the self emerges through integration of opposing aspects. Asymptote examined poses that cannot persist. Limits tested anatomical extremes. Conditionals proposed theoretical morphologies beyond biological constraint. Each series examined specific conditions under which opposing forces organize into stable form.

The transition to sculpture shifts this inquiry from photographic realization to sculptural embodiment—from equilibrium captured in image to equilibrium manifested as persistent physical mass.

Whether examined through light or manifested in mass, equilibrium is not a given condition. It is achieved through the precise organization of opposing forces—constructed, tested, refined.

The question persists: how do opposing forces coexist within a single form? The work demonstrates that coexistence is neither compromise nor resolution, but sustained dynamic relation—each force held in check by its complement, neither dominating, both essential.
