"Silent Resonance”
“My work explores the touchstones of life, examining the emotional and intellectual response to events that affect my life.” - Eric Hess

SEPTEMBER 1 - DECEMBER 4, 2021
I address abuse, death, the ephemeral, greed, and my ability to relinquish or take control in my work.
I develop sculptures and installations using glass, cement, video, ice, steel, and ready-made objects. There are Platonic and existential aspirations that drive my work. I recognize that my work initially appears very simple in its presentation, but my sculptures present very complex ideas.
The need to express my life experiences is what drives my creative process. I develop contemplative works that rely on light and shadows to elicit an emotional response.
