Artist Statement

The sculptures I make rest on the nature of phenomena, exploring the mechanics of thought and reaction.
Anything we make by hand can be thought of as a form of illusion. My work tries to explain these complex feelings by revealing the objects that exist deep within all our minds. As a former engineer, the process of making revealed the possibility of setting the imagination free to indulge in our illusions. As an artist a less tangible world of appearance and experience revealed a machine in which possibilities are truly infinite.
