I am curious about how knowledge is formed - through intuition, interaction, and observation. In my practice, drawing, sculpture, and video form an ongoing process of tracing, transcribing, dissecting, re-assembling, and transforming information. Often, I start with an object found in the natural world, such as a stone, and seek to explore my understanding of, and relationship to it. Using the notions that perspective, scale, and time are all relative, I wonder how might our relationship within different ecologies shift- how might our evaluations of “useful” and “useless” change if we learn to see the world a little differently? Lena Klett is an interdisciplinary artist currently based in Phoenix, Arizona.
