ARTIST STATEMENT
\n<\/strong>
\n“My artwork is abstract working mostly with fabrication techniques using wood, steel and other materials in addition to some bronze casting. For some years now, my sculptural work has been about a playful linear element exploring its surroundings, typically interacting with architectonic structures while creating a sense of implied movement.<\/p>\n

In a more general sense, my sculpture exploration continues to be derived from a keen interest in structure and the mechanical. This interest extends beyond the structural or mechanical object to include the surrounding and\/or supporting forms, the manner in which they interlock or relate, and the consequential smooth transition or transfer of energy, or motion, implied or otherwise, from one form to the adjoining.”<\/p>\n
