Statement

My sculptural practice is rooted in the exploration of shapes and their intrinsic qualities, drawing inspiration from mathematical equations as foundational elements. Embracing Allen Ginsberg's notion that "things are symbols of themselves," my work focuses on the object itself, transcending specific symbolic meanings and invites viewers to engage with pure form. I encourage viewers to appreciate the beauty and complexity inherent in the interplay of light, texture, form and spatial relationships within the sculptures.

This is just one piece in a series of pieces I'm creating that explores the nature of shape and form. This implicit surface has been sliced apart and reconstructed in a manner that allows the viewer to contemplate the nature of form, light and surface. This is not a diagram of the equation it is based on, it is a unique object with its own intrinsic qualities that exists to help me understand the fundamental nature of three dimension space
