My contemporary sculpture refers
to the communication of ideas between artistic, spiritual,
and scientific creativity through operations of abstraction
and transformation. In my objects, I strive to
bring forth metaphors of spirituality, high ideals, and perhaps
to some degree the exploration of the unknown. |
