I have been an artist since I was small, from the first time I experienced a flow state while making something. I have tried to reenact that occasion, that feeling of absorption and satisfaction, as often as I can. This has led me down some interesting paths. I’ve designed houses, created animation and made all sorts of stuff. Now I’m the creator of whirligigs and wind spinners fashioned from recycled aluminum cans.

I operate from the premise that art is necessary to the human heart and spirit. I have learned: that art is a practice, and like any practice it is the artists responsibility to do the work, even when it isn’t fun or particularly successful. Process is fundamental. I think about: how art emerges from the subconscious, within a place and a time, and within a social context. I wonder about: how art manifests our human interconnectedness.

My art in it’s current form emerges from occurrences involving identity and place. It furthers themes that I began with back when I began to seriously art – 3D, design and motion.
