I’ve been spending a lot of time in the studio lately working on a new piece for my upcoming solo show at the Jackson Junge Gallery. This work in progress piece will feature a vibrant and colorful cuckoo clock made up of a plethora of sculpted and painted visuals. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been focusing on perfecting each small sculptural element before taking the final steps towards assembling everything into one cohesive work.

Attached above are a few photos of some of the more recent elements I’ve put together. On the left, you’ll see a work in progress shot of some gears and various sculptural pieces that are close to being finished—these will soon be ready to attach to the main piece. Additionally on the right is a broader photo showing how the piece is being composed, with each of the smaller attacments I’ve been crafting. This stage is essential to my process, as I’m constantly experimenting with the placement of each component to create the strongest overall work.

To see this piece in all of its finished glory and many more of my most recent works, be sure to stop by the Jackson Junge Gallery to view my solo exhibition “CUCKOO- I’m Not Crazy You Are.” The Exhibition will be on display from August 11th through September 21st. I hope to see you there!
