These sculptures are a selection of work that stems back over a course of a few years.
‍
My initial interest and departure point comes from observations of electrical pylons that carry high voltage power lines across the land. There are two main elements that have captivated my creative urges and have led to the sculptures that I produce.
‍
First are the figurative qualities the pylons possess. I observe how different structures reveal a more specific gender than another and obvious recognition of appendages. Even as a child, I saw them as big creatures lumbering across the landscape in uniform lines.

Second is the "line" and how it moves over vast areas of landscape carrying electricity from

point A to point B and how it affects our daily lives. Also, how we as people take for granite the visual existence of these dominating structure and the function it provides bringing electricity into our homes.
‍
It has been my desire to take a static structure that is common in our daily visual vocabulary and bring it to life, in hopes of changing our visual perception of an otherwise mundane object.
‍
In these most recent works, I have continued to investigate movement in the forms pushing the inanimate into animate, perhaps anthropomorphism. I proceed by developing a surface that emits a visual noise using line, color and the physical mark.
