interview for an upcoming article to be published in Sculpture Magazine, North America’s foremost magazine on contemporary sculpture.
This
series is a direct response to nature, using a natural material, wood, and
the natural process of growth and decay.
'Angel'
IN THE ROUND
The
objects and installations are serene in contrast to their colour that can
vary from hues of luxurious brilliance to glowing neon and metal.
'Quarter Round'
TWIST
I want to
address in this series, not just a vocabulary of forms or an exploration
of a material’s possibilities, but relationships between physical
substance, perception, narrative presence, and the confluence of social,
conceptual, and natural processes.
