Kline Swonger is a cross-disciplinary artist whose research and sculptural work revolves around perception and psychology of space. She imagines place as residing simultaneously in both physical and emotional landscapes, the moments experienced in-between offering new perspective and opportunity for discovery. Through her work she explores the relationship formed when the boundary between internal and external dissolves, and the consequence of separation or fragmentation. She formally integrates spatial boundaries, subtle shifts in light and details, and manipulated materials which engage the senses into her works. Through aesthetically quiet sculpture installations with the world through their senses, space for reflection is created. Viewers are invited to explore their own thresholds of perception, noticing their engagement with the world through their senses.
