Align

Align explores the shifting relationships between forms through contact, separation, and interruption. Built from two or more primary shapes, the works examine how forms meet, overlap, or hold their distance, and how these relationships change through material intervention.

Through layering, sanding, abrasion, and burning, the surfaces are repeatedly constructed and altered. Some retain dense accumulations of material, while others are worn nearly smooth. Circular openings and exposed margins interrupt the forms, allowing absence to shape their relationships as much as physical contact. Each intervention tests an intended arrangement against the material's response, often requiring further adjustment or revealing possibilities beyond the initial intention.

Rather than resolving into a fixed order, the forms retain traces of these encounters. Alignment becomes a condition continually tested and redefined through the tension between deliberate action and the material's resistance.
