My approach is intuitive and process-driven rather than having preconceived ideas. My process in sculpture is a process of discovery through making. I have a conversation with my materials, luring out of them the dynamic forces of nature. I allow the work to evolve, probing shapes, investigating its capacity to change. I seek to reveal the nature of the material, allowing it to take on a life of its own.My work stands as a reminder of the connection between man and nature as the world around us becomes increasingly removed from this essential and most basic union. While the metals I use are clearly man-made, the result of my collaboration with them is a blurring of the divide between nature and structure, space and form.My sculpture embodies the tension between stasis and impending movement; despite its weight and volume, or perhaps because of it, metal can dance and even suggest song. Ideally a viewer engages with my work on a subliminal level enabling them to have an experience of a uniquely personal nature. I work with stainless steel, bronze, Corten steel, and carbon steel. These diverse metals, with their varied looks, suggest forms individualistically. Select Public Collections: Nation Towers, Abu Dhabi UAEPark Plaza Westminster Bridge, London UK Atlantic Richfield Corporation, LA, CA St. Regis Hotel, San Francisco, CAIntercontinental Boston, Boston MAQueen Rania Al-Abdullah, Amman JordanDr. Lorne M.
