I find it remarkable that by looking at an object fashioned by some hand long dead, or distant, it’s possible to achieve a kind of intimacy. That by how they ordered and touched some material, artists have left a record that is tender and personal. The record is localized in a time and place coincident with their lives.
I like to think that my work leaves a record of my passing through. That my art can reveal my thoughts or feelings at great distances, and over time, more accurately than my words is my hope.
I believe that studio practice is a kind of spiritual negotiation with, with one’s very existence. That it is a shaping of, and reconciliation with, one’s self and circumstance as they continuously evolve. Like the man said: “I seem to be a verb” (Buckminster Fuller)
