My work lies somewhere between mathematics, rhythm and romance, grace and chaos. It is not important to me that this work fits categorically in a specific slot, rather the viewer, once on the visual journey, sees my work on their own terms.
Initially, my goals were to simply carve wood in such a way as to create an illusion with the process itself. Almost as if I had just twisted the wood into its new form by hand instead of carving it.
These explorations evolved into various themes. The basis is to continue and be a part of our ongoing interest in communicating to one another visually. The primary elements are the capturing of motion in time, emotional expression, and investigating the potential of two dimensional ideas in three dimensional space.
As I continue my creative quest, I find myself more and more fascinated by both the individualistic and repetitious aspects of the ancient and modern visual vocabularies.
