"It is the numbers that control the form, not me."
"Weather is an amalgam of systems that is inherently invisible to most of us, so I use sculpture and music to make it, not just visible, but also tactile and audible."
"[My work] challenges our assumptions of what kind of visual vocabulary belongs in the world of art, versus science."
"My work focuses on the intersection of art and science and the visual articulation of scientific observations."
"A problem with sculpture is the human ear is more equipped to look for nuances through sound than visually."
