Artist Statement: In my work, I explore those moments that exist in the periphery of our storytelling.  Those quiet exchanges that occur when we’re disarmed by the comfort and familiarity of our own domestic space.  Often using materials found on the battlefield, which come imbued with a specific history, in juxtaposition to those found within the everyday domestic, I create art that maintains essential truths while simultaneously questioning autobiography and authenticity.  The means are, necessarily, minimal as I seek to create a balance of physical tension while working materials that are seemingly at rest. —Nathan Heilman
