I intend to use those materials (steel, iron, bronze, wood, fabric) and forms (geometric shapes, vessels, rings, wheels) that strike a response of familiarity in us all. I hope to develop a dialogue between the forms, scale and chosen materials that engenders an emotional, perhaps sublime, experience for the viewer. Sculptural concepts often begin for me verbally- through a word or phrase- and the physical materials I choose to use create associations that build and finish the concept presented by the title. I hope to present a situation, involve the viewer by piquing their interest in a familiar form or medium and leave them with a new experience.
