Artist Statement:
I believe that the female form is a paradox; a mystery that I choose to explore. Both sexual and demure…graceful and strong….the feminine shape is a timeless ambiguity that all can relate to. Wives, sisters, daughters, mothers, lovers: every segment of society has some notion of femininity. My goal is to explore this legend: this power of female sexuality.
My chosen medium to represent the female form is wood. I believe that wood is the most beautiful substance; it is both natural as well as sensual. The flowing topographical lines and curves of wood, as seen in various grains, inherently emphasize the natural beauty of feminine curvature. Wood also perfectly expresses the qualities of sensuality: while hard and strong, it also can be both soft and warm.
Wood is organic; an innate part of this earth and who we all are as people. However, wood is also rich and varied…creating a natural paradigm of originality and creativity.
Each piece of wood was chosen for the inherent character it represents. Each log…tree….branch….knot brought out a specific form. No human models were used in these pieces, the trees itself were the inspiration.
