Short Bio

Virginia is an interdisciplinary artist working primarily in sculpture and photography, while using a variety of media—laser cut plastic and resin, stainless steel, wood, and 3D printed plastic. Virginia has shown work nationally and has been commissioned by the Lincoln Motor Company, the Dayton Metro Library, Cleveland State University, the city of Ocala, Florida, and The Ohio State University to create permanent works of sculpture.

Statement

My work is born out of the intersection of science and technology.  I mine systems found in the natural world and contemporary technology to create two-dimensional work and sculptural forms.

My process includes using two-dimensional imagery and my own photography in the creation of my works of sculpture. I use impressions that are unseen and ephemeral, such as fungi spore prints, aerial maps of green space, light maps of urban landscapes, sound impressions, and interference patterns. Using these natural phenomena and technological systems, I dissect and synthesize the information to create three-dimensional forms.
