Rethinking

2006, Cast and manipulated stone, fiberglass and iron, 33"w x 85"h x 31"d

My work is a continued experimentation concerning body language, sculptural medium and color through drawings and maquettes. It allows me to explore the interaction between gesture, texture and color. The devotion to focused studies, research and experimentation concerning areas of the human form and psyche result in the evolution of my large sculptures.

I often establish deliberate tension between realism and abstraction, femininity and masculinity, culture and character, and modernity and classicism. The aim is to encompass the mental and physical aspects of people intertwined with the social effects of everyday life.
