EXPERIMENTATION IS CRITICAL IN MY WORK. ABSTRACTION BEST SUITS MY PURSUIT OF LEARNING BECAUSE IT CONJURES UP LESS BIAS FORM ME AND THE VIEWER. I MAKE USE OF NATURAL MATERIALS BECAUSE THEY POINT TO WHAT IS ESSENTIAL. PROCESSES SUCH AS THOSE INVOLVED IN CERAMICS HOLD SPECIAL MEANING, THEY ARE THE VERY SAME ACTIONS THAT CONTINUE TO SHAPE OUR WORLD, HEATING, COOLING MELTING, CRYSTALLIZATION AND EROSION. I WORK WITH CLAY BECAUSE IT IS SPONTANEOUS, INTUITIVE AND HOLISTIC. LIKE DRAWING, WHICH PLAYS A CENTRAL ROLL IN ALL MY WORK I GRAVITATE TO THESE SPONTANEOUS MATERIALS/PROCESS BECAUSE THEY MOST CLOSELY REFLECT OUR OWN THINKING PROCESS WHICH OPERATES IN AN EXPANDED, NON-LINEAR FIELD.

AS AN ARTIST AND DESIGNER I WORK ACROSS DISCIPLINES TO CREATE SOMETHING THAT IS CONTEXTURALIZED BY THE LOCATION, PLACE AND SPACE . I AM OFTEN DESIGNING FOR A CLIENT, SO THIS BECOMES A COLLABORATION BETWEEN US. BRAINSTORMING IS AN EXCITING AND ESSENTIAL PART OF WORKING WITH A CLIENT.
