ARTIST STATEMENT:
I am constantly learning, unlearning, and open to new ideas, it’s a Sisyphusian task. One must embrace it. To perpetuity.
This is my advice to ME. There are no shortcuts. We are living in a time when technology is outpacing life. Inundated
with distractions, it’s a challenging time. Be true to your Self.
How do I define Art? The desire to create, to engage in the labyrinth web of our Being, to seek solace, a sensibility, a
contradiction to the turmoil this world is engulfed in. It seems a constant flow, a constant battle to evolve.
Sculpture, to me, is about engaging space. The Sculptor owes a responsibility as to what’s done with it because he now
owns that space. Nothing else will exist in its place. It’s here to stay. I must respect Space.
Out of chaos emerges creativity. You control the chaos. Creativity is not about seeking ways to create. It’s the ability to
look within, giving yourself the license to expose your Self. In the end, if you are true to the process you will create
something.
The life of an Artist is that of Self Discovery. We create our own questions. Seek our own answers. In the end, it’s the
journey that makes it worthwhile.
