Work from his oeuvre.

“Rooted in the latent content of materials, my current body of work examines the phenomena of touch and it’s diverse relationship between labor and value. Between the affect of construction work and art handling my practice explores various modes of touch through objects and audience. Materials such as heat and handmade soap, dirt and lidocaine, act as moderators, inviting and at times obscuring the senses. I aim for a “tactile vertigo” of sorts; a moment where the predictable returns to the obscure and the most basic of perceptions are called into question.” – Ryan Estep
