ARTIST
STATEMENT
"My sculptures are an
exploration of texture.
Creating sculpture is such a
tactile process for me, that I
want my work not only to
reflect that, but at times, to
exaggerate it. I find an
intense familiarity between my
past life as an equestrian,
and my present life as a
sculptor, as both creating
sculptures and working with
horses are such physically
rewarding experiences. My
ultimate desire is for other
people to experience that in a
tangible way when they come
into contact with my work.
Beyond that, each sculpture
has a unique story behind it,
or sometimes, is simply a
three dimensional sketch of a
moment in time." -Jhaya
