Permanent public sculpture in Brooklyn commissioned by NYC.

"Front view" with a “percher,” a visitor from the neighborhood taking advantage of the view of the paved plaza. To the left is tLa Marqueta de Williamsburg and to the right is the street. The Bushwick Houses are across the street. At different times of the day, the colored trellis casts a variety of patterns and offers shade.

This permanent public sculpture sits on a paved pedestrian plaza, with green space planter behind the artwork

Plaza Perch with bench and roof view, showcases how the Historic Moore Street Market’s enamel signage is in consort with the artwork’s trellis and in doing so reinforces that the new plaza with it’s artwork is a sign of continuing community vitality. There is a play of accents with the color palettes with the natural light and steel as the plaza pavers.

Public sculpture and functional art piece, seen from the street. With a view of Humboldt Plaza. Plaza Perch stands with its strong profile and partners with a lamppost, tree and patch of greenery

Here Plaza Perch serves as event and stage for a summer salsa night. Drummers and trumpets use the artwork as a stage while onlookers gather all around the artwork and salsa dancers congregate in the front of the perch. The artwork and plaza respond to the vibrancy of the city as an event space.

A stack of four steel rectangular prisms, hollow and open on sides and ends; these right-angle lines can be stacked and restacked in hundreds of possible iterations.

An elaborate, interactive desk that engages visitors in a social space where they can talk, read, draw, think, and listen. Pictured in a gallery surrounded by artwork made at the desk.

Desk as “social sculpture."

A little garden, "Perched Patio," was made for Wave Hill, Bronx, NY. The stools made of white Corian® functioned as a storytelling area and were perched atop a scenic overlook. (The Corian® was sourced from salvaged sink-cuts, and the legs were gathered from fallen trees from a storm.)

A little percher, like a toad on a lilypad.

This is a reinstallation of a social sculpture originally commissioned by the Corcoran Museum. This sculpture was moved from the museum to Arlington Metro stop, Arlington, VA.

Commissioned by Grinnell College, Grinnell, Iowa, later reinstalled at the Corcoran Gallery of Art for the 48th Biennial, Washington, D.C. Part of my perch series, an interactive social sculpture.

Perchance is a mobile, sculptural project that uses the flatbed of an El Camino as a platform for social interaction. Made of various hinged seats and a table that can fold out for interaction and down for travel, the space allows for lounging and the taking in of the surroundings. This participatory sculpture toured the country before being auctioned on eBay.

Part of my personal perch series, like person free-standing tree houses. Originally commissioned by the Sculpture Center, Long Island City, Queens and now installed in the playground of Alpine Montessori in Alpine, Texas.

Constructed for gallery exhibition, part of my ongoing "Personal Perch" series.

A white double-lounge chair made of recycled plastic wood and stainless steel screws, so that folks can face each and converse.

I built this lifeguard chair built for a patio. It is big and comfortable, a little steep but worth the climb for the view.

This is a multi-layered deck made for a New York City loft, with pillows and a bottle opener and different levels it was made for a party.
