In the laboratory and my studio, invisible phenomena are made visible through experiments, imaging, and repetition. Working in the Mabbs lab, we use velocity mapped imaging of photoelectrons to understand gas phase reactions. Through highly repetitive experiments, patterns emerge from seemingly random results. 

In my studio I use sculpture, prints, and digital media to make those invisible phenomena more accessible. By using a weighted random sampling of distributions that match experimental results, I generate the coordinates of points in each sculpture. The same coordinates are transferred into 3D modeling software, where I create digital animations as well as models for 3D printed blocks for relief prints. Through multiple forms of visualization, my work seeks to reveal the quantum mechanics of reactions and the techniques used to study them.
