Artists Statement

As the work of art continues to move through necessary and innovative arena of thought and consequence, the object (finding its place somewhere between total abstraction and representation) has remained for me a powerful vehicle for reflecting on what has been and the contemplation of what may be. The substance of my meditation is the experience of life: spiritual, emotional, intellectual and physical. If I have indeed found any wisdom, it is certainly embodied in these sculptures.

Sculpture is the means by which I am able to combine what is real with that which is imagined. In a world where order is merely an illusion, the work of my art becomes the ability to negotiate the churning of many tides. Ultimately, I emerge with a better sense of self, manifested in a work of art.

The ability to establish a critical and equal balance of the hands, eyes and mind in the development of my sculpture is, for me, of great value. Critical in the sense that no one element of the three can be relied upon more than another. A result of achieving such a balance in the pursuits of one’s work is the lack of tolerance for random, unrelated ideas. No one piece of sculpture is completely separate from another. Instead, they are individual pieces of work, or ‘works of art,’ connected by a common thread: they become part of a much larger picture… my art.
