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.
