RECREATE, REGENERATE, RECYCLE After 54 years since my first show I am still fascinated by working in 3 dimensions – maybe because I cant draw or more likely because sculpture holds some obtuse subconscious obligation. It is still addictive and highly satisfying despite the onus of molding, casting, welding, polishing, fitting in a tough work environment before the final satisfaction of seeing the piece come together as envisaged. Living in the Mountains provides the creative impetus, being surrounded by rocks, rivers, the detritus of erosion, geomorphology and all natures destructive force has inspired an eclectic, very personal and organic bias to my work – an appreciation of random forms, diverse textures and all the unexpected creativity of the natural world where no line is perfect. Working first as a welder on a thermos electric plant in the mountains behind Bogota in 1962, then non ferrous studies with British Oxygen and a move to Spain 1965, coupled with a fascination for travel and different cultures has led to carving in Thailand, casting in Java, hammer welding in Rajasthan, silver in Bali and wood in Ghana. Life has been a wonderful learning curve thanks to artisans around the world who have taught me their inherited skills and techniques leading me to a fusion of materials and helping amplify the creative possibilities in my work. At “ Space Gallery “ in Denver, Colorado I will be showing a collection of my latest work, brought from Spain but inspired by many visits to your magnificent “ Rockies “.
