About the Artist...
As an artist I concentrate on shapes, volumes and light.
Some people see color, and some hear sounds. When I look at
a tree, I see it as a shape, having volume and occupying
space and making voids. I observe nature in this manner.
Using human
figures, insects, animals and many models and shapes stored
in my memory, I first draw from the model them as I look at
the figurative drawing new volumes emerge lines are
connected and forms appear in different ways on paper. I
draw until I am satisfied with the forms, and then I merge
them into a special piece of sculpture.
My work is
influenced by everything I see and do. Experiences of having
lived in different parts of the world, in both urban and
rural settings, people I talk to, books I read and art shows
all combine and emerge as a new language in my work. When I
finish a piece of sculpture, I have expressed my ideas,
emotions and feelings, but I still cannot find the exact
words to explain what I have done with that particular
piece. I am always surprised at what I do in creating a
finished piece. I feel drawing and sculpture are the media
in which I express myself best |
