About the Item

"I am influenced and gain insights through the exploration of artists and authors who consider the land and our place within it. This information along with my own investigations, result in natural and manmade forms, shapes, colors, textures and lines being acquired from the world that I interact with on a daily basis, reimagined and incorporated into my sculpture. I am interested in how the tools I use in the garden, woods and studio act as an intermediary as we interface with our surroundings. The vining tendrils of plants, the color and shape of insect life and seeds, the graceful curves found in the trees, the texture of bark, the movement of water, etc., initiate the foundation and inventory so integral to this work. In developing forms and compositions my process involves a balance between reason and intuition mediated by formal concerns. Within my work I connect disparate elements, an acorn cap placed on a chicken egg, a branch with foliage of feathers and, in the same vein, I use cast elements of the human form, hands and feet, atop reliquary-¬‐type vessels containing elements from nature to express the interconnected relationship of humans and the environment."
