Fred Sandback changed my life


In 2007 I saw a Sandback and it effected my thinking about artistic practice greatly.  It prompted me to look at string as a material to work with.  I was living in Princeton at the time and chose to start my first experiments with sting in the woods of the Institute for Advanced Study.  After a few months my gallery, CVZ Contemporary, showed projections of the outdoor installations.  A few months later I was invited to Vienna to take place in the Vienna Biennale and then a year after that I got a grant from the City of Philadelphia all to make work inspired by Sandback.
