My work explores man's desire to harness and control nature. For example a ‘weed’ is defined as a plant that grows where man doesn’t want it to. The sculptures of Ghost Trees and Skulls invite the viewer to meditate on the fleetingness of nature and life, and to suspend the inevitable, immanent arrival of death. On the flip side the work is also a celebration of nature and man. Both go hand in hand and are dependent on each other
 
I use the most advanced technology with classical drawing techniques. Light is the main source of the work addressing the issue of time. Scratch marks are etched and sculpted into the multiple layers of glass. The light source refracts off the markings creating the illusion of movement and three dimensionality. Once the light is off, the image disappears.
 

The eye passes through the layers of glass the way memory passes through time. The image is suspended within the clear block, creating a delicate tension between the solid and the ethereal, the traditional and the experimental, nostalgia and potential.
