Sculpture

Soaring effortlessly, stainless steel possesses attributes that are expansive. Nature evokes physiological responses, impulses that are a fundamental source of creativity. We are naturally drawn to the sparkle of the sun on water, and so it is as soft, light reflecting patterns on the surface of a stainless steel sculpture enhances the visual rhythm with linear contours and asymmetrical balance.

Carbon Steel is a tempered, substantive industrial material. I work intuitively exploiting its innate qualities of physical force and vitality. It feels somewhat subversive to disregard the utility of this material for aesthetic purposes. There is sensory appeal in creating biomorphic form, and manipulating the surface into a variety of texture, polishing it into a soft charcoal sheen, or adding subtle natural hues.
