Xero

Xero is a series of small plaster works where form is reduced to its most essential language. Built on 3 x 3 inch gesso panels, each piece holds a field of white shaped by sweeping, continuous motion. The surfaces rise and fall in quiet arcs, suggesting movement that has been slowed, held, and allowed to rest.

The white is not empty. It carries subtle shifts in light, catching along ridges and softening into shadow, revealing the gesture within the material. Each form feels both deliberate and intuitive—like something drawn through the surface rather than placed upon it.

At the edges, the exposed wood remains visible. This interruption grounds the work, offering a contrast between the raw and the refined, the structural and the formed. It frames the plaster not as an isolated object, but as something held within a boundary—contained, yet still in motion.

Despite their scale, the pieces feel expansive. They operate as fragments of a larger rhythm, where repetition and variation create a quiet sense of continuity.

Xero explores reduction, material, and movement—
a space where form is stripped back, and what remains is gesture, light, and the trace of making.
