About the Artist

The sculpture that I create consists of found architectural and industrial objects that I have reconfigured, giving voice to remnants of the urban and industrial landscapes that were once an integral part of our physical environment. I feel a strong connection to the wasteland of industry. These half decayed objects that become left behind were once essential and viable to a social and economic situation and now are relics, heavy with their own histories and references. In choosing specific artifacts, I am able to assemble them to create my own found objects, which hopefully, will evoke an appreciation of the aesthetic qualities of these old and seemingly useless relics.
