Paradise is not for the living, and it may not even be for the dead. So, we make art to subjugate the fear that what we know is all we will ever have. In this spirit, Fabric of Paradise explores some of the ways we contort reality to extract meaning and escape death, featuring pieces thoughtfully curated from a couple of the artist’s most prominent series, as well as brand new standalone works. 

Focused on flora, fauna and viscera, the pieces indulge - and simultaneously challenge - the viewer’s sense of comfort. A few of the works contain machinery or other trappings of industry and suggest an ambivalence toward technology and its effects on human beings. And all of the pieces ask the viewer to consider this question: How can you be wholly a part of nature while also being wholly apart from it?
