Artist Statement

 

“My initial interest and departure point comes from observations of electrical

pylons that carry high voltage power lines across the land. There are two

main elements that have captivated my creative urges and have led to the

sculptures that I produce.

 

It has been my desire to take a static structure that is common in our daily

visual vocabulary and bring to it life, in hopes of changing our visual

perception of an otherwise mundane object.

 

I have continued to investigate movement in the forms pushing the

inanimate into animate, perhaps anthropomorphism. I proceed by

developing a surface that emits a visual noise using line, color and the

physical mark.”

Stop by our office located at 92 NB Gratiot in Mount Clemens and pick up a brochure of all our sculptures in the brochure box located on our front porch or at the Bonior Tree or Pollinator Park. There are now plenty of sunny days where a walk can be exhilarating.
