“My geometric abstract constructions break
the plane of two-dimensional
painting and are composed of colored, textured, and multi- layered elements made from common materials such
as wood, copper, and aluminum. I create their visual complexity by varying the depth, color, and texture of each piece to draw the viewer into the work. I never sketch before I start a new piece but trust my intuition and the materials at hand to guide me as I create works of spatial balance and harmony.
“My current work is intended to hang on a wall or stand as a sculpture, but I would like to expand my process to build larger-than-life-size cubes built using geometric wood and metal components. These tex- tured, polychrome cubes would be constructed with a hidden door allowing the viewer to enter the work and be fully enveloped by it. The only light inside would be from spaces left between the individual geometric elements which adds to the overall expe- rience of being inside a work of art.”
