The Relationship Series is a study of the examination of pushing the contrast between dynamic energy and reflective contemplation, and the nature in which they are defined is the basis of my work. With minimal line, outside influences are removed and the forum for testing shape and the interconnectedness of inner spaces is explored. My sculptures are kept purposefully simple, stripped of detail; and they require exact attention to proportion. The sculptures are sensitive to the slightest alteration. This invites exploration from many angles moreover, mimicking the juxtaposition of individual serenity and collective activity.
