Artist Statement
My work is based upon a particular approach to the observed, dynamics
of the human body. The body is not my subject but its physicality is my
source of sculptural invention. I do not seek the literal, the
allegorical or the metaphorical. I want to go beyond external
appearances or associations to create a particular and unique heightened
experience of the physical, fully expressed in three dimensional space.
I
have been working with steel for forty years. I have never been daunted
by the material but have always wanted to shape it and build with it
myself. I work directly with the material in the studio with no
preconceived idea of what the sculpture should look like.
I
continually try to rethink the relationship between my source; the
material and the construction of the sculpture, to approach it with
different emphasis each time.
