Artist Statement

My sculpture begins in response to a feeling. The feeling informs my visual direction, at which point I start drawing in space with my armature materials. I’m attracted to natural forms and how they transition into one another, and the way they move through space. Dance also inspires me- the emotional expression as well as the choreographed form. I want my sculptures to feel alive, and it is important to me that they work well in the round. I want to walk around each piece and feel a continuum, so that anywhere I pause the expression is clear.
