Artist Statement:
My sculptures are an arrangement of every day commonly used found objects. These materials are assembled in abstract and unexpected compositions . The objects and materials I am drawn to consist of cardboard, felt, tinfoil, stockings pink styrafoam, plastic tubing and resin. With the combination of these materials and their unique arrangements the viewer is confronted with a certain rawness or distorted quality, maybe even dreamlike. Knowing full well these materials already carry much of their own history and meaning I try to create my own personal hybrid, hopefully with a meaning far greater than the sum of its parts.
