Gay Outlaw’s work in photography and sculpture explores form through structure, pattern and translation. Her process often begins with a form from one of her photographs. She distills the shape or pattern and re-works it in a variety of materials -- rubber, cardboard, vinyl, wood, glass.

Each re-thinking leads to another. Every shift in scale, material or dimension is made with such sensitivity and care that no matter how extreme or unexpected, it seems logical, even inevitable.
