"I try to think of scenery as more of a puppet than an environment. I find that incorporating light, movement, and unorthodox materials into a design can help make the world of a production feel as alive as the performers, and provide a storytelling structure that is as emotional as it is physical."
In his Studio practice, Mark focuses on work and media that encourage free exploration independent of the rigid structures of design. He finds the fluidity of water and boldness of ink and color introduce him to shapes and characters he would otherwise not create. These explorations often make their way into his design process, resulting in new and exciting installations, costumes, acts, and events.
