Sculptures in movement
About
I love exploring the interaction between art and people through ceramic sculpture.
My sculptures are organically shaped and have joint-like connections that allow movement and create sounds that enhance the work.
The potential for movement and dynamics of the sculptures tempts visitors to interact and play with them.
My work is an abstract study of the connection between shape, movement, and sound within the sculptural space.
