Artist Statement
My artistic practice as a glass and steel sculptor is driven by a deep appreciation for color and the transformative power of fused glass. Through my work, I endeavor to create captivating pieces that engage viewers on multiple levels.
Working with fused glass, I explore the endless possibilities of color, texture, and transparency. Each piece is crafted, with careful consideration given to the interplay of hues and the dynamic effects of light. The vibrant colors I employ evoke emotions and create a sense of energy and vitality within the artwork.
In my artistic journey, I have found a particular fascination with creating table top pieces, tall free-standing sculptures, and wall installations. These diverse formats allow me to experiment with different dimensions and spatial relationships, enabling me to express my artistic vision in various ways.
When incorporating both steel and glass in my sculptures, I focus on the inherent qualities of each material. Steel provides a solid foundation and serves as a structural element emphasizing form and stability. In contrast, glass becomes the medium through which I infuse my creations with vivid color and alluring textures. The fusion of these materials results in a dynamic interplay between strength and fragility, rigidity and fluidity.
Inspired by the beauty of the natural world and interplay of light and color within it, my work seeks to capture moments of awe and wonder. Through the combination of glass and steel I strive to create sculptures that invite viewers to explore the interplay between form, color, and texture.
Ultimately, my goal as a glass and steel sculptor is to evoke a sense of joy, curiosity, and contemplation in those who encounter my artwork. I hope that my creations serve as a catalyst for meaningful connections and conversations, inviting viewers to delve into their own interpretations and experiences.
