1.An exploration of color enabled by dimensional form,
2.An absolute fascination with the land art of the 1970s, and
3.The role of process and chance in the creation of visual complexity.
This website illustrates these three “creative imperatives” in the form of new glass sculptures created during the last two-three years.
Check out especially the new 12 Cubes on Mars” (above), the “Cut Cube” Series and “Archeological Series” (right). “Blue Cut Cube - Winter” was featured on the cover of the April 2014 Art and Antiques Magazine -- see web reference below:
http://www.artandantiquesmag.com/2014/04/glass-artists/.
“Red Cut Cube - Autumn”, shown opposite is the latest creation in the “Four Seasons Series”
“Artifact No.2, Dover: Flint and Chalk”, and “Ancient One” are just to the right here. Click on these pictures to see more of this newest series. Both these new series can be seen under the “Series” tab.
Also, Look for me at the Habatat International Show this April in Michigan.
