Born in 1968 in Santa Monica, California. Hendee received a BFA from the San Francisco Art Institute in 1990, and an MFA from Stanford University in 1993. At Stanford, lacking the funds for more expensive materials, he used cardboard to fabricate small sculptures. These continued to grow in size until “the model expanded beyond the walls and people could walk inside the work.” Hendee thinks of his work as large-scale sculpture, resisting characterizing it as installation art, a category he finds to be lacking in specificity. He is influenced by diverse sources: nanotechnology, computer design, early Modernism, science fiction, and his personal experience spelunking. His work has been exhibited at PS.1 Contemporary Art Center, The New Museum, Sculpture Center, and The Whitney Museum Of American Art at Altria. Recent awards include a fellowship at the MacDowell Colony. Hendee currently lives and works in Newark, New Jersey.
