Anna Hepler works in a range of media—drawing, sculpture, and installation—that portrays the fragility of fleeting moments. Her drawings and installations involve small, repetitive marks or particles that coalesce into large forms referencing interconnected systems, organic shapes, and even fireworks.
"I find fleeting moments of suspended geometry euphoric. Fireworks, for example, create a momentary three-dimensional sphere of exploded light that quickly disintegrates into chaos. Dandelion whorls, though rooted, form an ephemeral and temporary perfect sphere. Flocks of birds converge in midair to suggest passing three-dimensional forms. In recent drawings and sculptures I strive to portray the awesome fragility of these moments." —Anna Hepler
