Sam Moree's approach to his work in holography stems from his diverse interests in painting, sculpture, photography, film, video, and theater. Moree's works often integrate sculptural components into their final compositions. In his words, "the sculpture works as a focal point to balance the complex details of the hologram."

"I look at holography as a dance of balance- a Rosetta Stone- between Art and Science. The Primitive and the Sophisticated. The Past and the Future. A Balancing beam of Light and Dark. Working with diverse material - metal, stone, neon, plastic, paint and glass, the sculpture echoes in a holographic window. With my work I use stark, almost symbolic sculpture as a diving board to tumble into a holographic graffiti landscape."
