Artist's
Statement
Lineage
is a representation of the progressional march of time from generation
to generation. The formal language borrows from the traditional grave
marker, yet the dynamic overall form is contrasted with the static arrangement
of contemporary grave markers. Lineage is a reinterpretation of
the "family plot" in that it represents the general human family
in comparison to the tradition nuclear family.
My sculpture draws upon my other work and interests in architectural design
and music composition. My artwork explores the juxtaposition of spirit
and matter, of nature and humanity, and of the present and the eternal.
