Artist's
Statement
The paradox that
"soft," fluid metal has evolved from flat rectangles though
force, determination, and tenacity enchants me. I am entranced
by the progressive transformation --- through hammering, persuasion,
and struggle --- from a level plane of metal toward an object of
unity and fluidity.
The forms in my
work have their roots in my gardens, and meanderings through the
woods and along the water's edge. It is difficult for me to take a
walk without lining my pockets with rocks, shells, leaves, and
twigs. These souvenirs fill the windowsills of my studio. In my
work, the allusions to nature may be ambiguous-- drawing in the
viewer, encouraging response and contemplation.
