Artist Statement

My recent works return to more familiar metaphors of natural symbols that have been the focal point of my sculpture for many years.  This symbolic visual language provides an opportunity to synthesize diverse ideas, theories, emotions and opinions into a creative unity. These new abstract landscape compositions of natural forces such as water, wind, and air provide the viewer both complicated and minimal interpretations.

The works also reinforce and refresh the history of metal sculpture. Bridging the gap of the past and present, the works integrate the tradition of drawing with the latest of digital technology. The textures and color of the works create an additional visual depth for the viewer with a natural surface that is often in contrast to the mechanical formalism of their construction.
