A Material Life


My work is a language. Its materials and structure express life, the human condition. Its intent is illumination.

Materials, all sorts, have always played a prominent role in my work. They have been a love of mine since childhood, and evident throughout my career in my functional designs, sculptural pieces and installations. The marriage of unusual and contrasting materials creates a visual or metaphorical language, an idea, concept, feeling, mood and  personal statement.
