"Every act of creation is first an act of destruction" - Pablo Picasso
Creating order from chaos. We strive for it daily. My art explores the relationships between form, color, composition and opposing objects as part of a single sculpture. I am fascinated by how these relationships can create order out of chaos or creation out of destruction to produce one unified idea.
I start with an amorphous piece of wood or metal. Through the destruction of its original form, I find unity within the piece and continually add to it until I feel it is done. Often the relationships of just form and color can produce that unity. Other times, multiple objects, lines, colors, and their relationships to one another are necessary to create a unified whole. My art is a constant examination of how creation and order can be created from destruction and chaos.
I hope my work brings you peace in this crazy world we live in.
