Artist's
Statement
I create my work in direct response to the natural material
I use, as well as the subject it references. The material I like to use
bets is stone because it brings the work closer to the earth's composition.
Some of my work is "tectonic," suggesting the effect of time
on stone. I find that I often reference things that have happened before,
and cemeteries hold a particular fascination for me. They are redolent
with history and social perspectives from the past.
Unlike many sculptors who work in stone today, I still forge my own tools
and carve my own sculptures. I believe it is imperative to do so to make
my work more vital.
