Making these are part of my day-to-day work. For me they are an inmate way of thinking with my hands. They interplay between sculpture, painting and drawing; creating a process that easily allows one to inform the other. I’m often compelled by the encounter between the rawness of an initial thought and the unruliness of a new material.

Sometimes I come across discarded material and it’ll remind me of a line of drawing, part of a painting or even something I’ve read. I’ll either keep it as it is, make a note of it or even make a variation of it using another material. This method of engagement is a way for me to move through my day with a certain awareness while offering the occasional surprise of seeing how my surroundings pertain to what I’m working on in the studio.
