Bio
My work grows from my interests in geology, the archaeological dig, and the work ethic of ancient times. I use industrial materials to create what I feel are fossils of our industrial culture, but also fossils that are infused with a sense of belonging in the natural world, as though I were a time traveler bringing back remnants of this society from where they would have fallen in our future.
Change is important. When you look at a sculpture one day and return to it another, you may find yourself engaged by it in a different way. It changes with the attitude and approach of the viewer. Also, it changes with its environment: with light, season, rain. My sculptures will also slowly evolve, rust bleeding lines into porous concrete, or a work settling on a wooden base. They will be maturing, still, after I am gone.
