"Experimentation is a big part of what I do. In working with aluminum wire screen, I’ve discovered that the interplay of light and surface adds surprise and even mystery to the work. There is also something mesmerizing about taking ordinary materials and transforming them into objects that evoke an emotional response and conjure up thoughts of living forms. Immersing myself in the material of aluminum screen, and pushing its limits, has allowed me to more deeply focus on shape, movement, illumination, and shadows—the screen’s ephemeral, non-utilitarian qualities."Amy Jean Boebel
