I am captivated by the interface of nature and technology. As an artist, my goal is to create art that vitalizes spaces, inspires people and gives a sense of hope to our current global community. My artwork primarily focuses on the qualities of light as well as the abstractions natural forms and processes.

In my explorations of native plants, for example, I am interested in the process of how plants communicate and move. My Floral Sculpture series explores form, structure and motion through mechanical movement and balance.  

Another perennial fascination of mine is the magic of photosynthesis. This has led me to develop a body of artwork that ‘harvests’ its own energy to self-animate. In my Solar Sculpture series, I incorporate photovoltaic cells to scavenge energy from secondary low-intensity light (i.e. ‘waste’ interior light) that is then used to power the illumination of these works.
