Mixed media assemblage
Varying sizes

Inspired by the landscapes and communities of brazil this series of wall sculptures and standing figures came out of a 2 month residency and private exhibition held by ApArt, a gallery in Sao Paulo Brazil. Hexapolis is the manifestation of technology and nature through cityscapes and the various beings that inhabit them. It is meant to be at once harmonious and destructive. At times fungal, growing, and spawning.
