Artist Statement

Artist�s Statement
My Art is my Statement.



Volume and Space are concepts that have influenced my art. I am particularly fascinated by their appearance in the human body.
I am interested in exploring dialogue both internal dialogue, which exists within oneself, and external connection that moves between two people or objects.
My art explores �contradictions� which are attracted to each other and create a new whole. The human figure appeals to me as an adequate form for expressing these ideas. Working with glass has given me the opportunity to stretch the boundaries of these concepts to new limits, as well as offering me the joyful experience of playing with colour.
I would like to concentrate my attention on capturing absence, an impression, commemorate memory, fleeing presence, give physical form to a spiritual value. The absence transferred into visual terms, long after it ceased to exist.
In both instances, when working with bronze or glass, I apply a casting technique called �Lost Wax�.
