Abstract

This thesis is an exploration of my artwork throughout graduate school. It addresses my transformation from a formalist sculptor making objects, to an adventure artist creating mixed media installations. My thesis exhibition presented a multi-channel video and sculptural installation, examining energy exchange, scale and heroics. The paper investigates scientific, personal and theoretical concerns of my event-based creative practice including movement, physical forces, risk, faith, and endurance.
