Revised 3-D Artist Statement with Images

Artist Statement

            The physical experience with dimensional hardwoods is a contemplative and introspective activity. Crafting objects is a visceral and provocative experience, as are the final products, which often become utilitarian pieces that present themselves in much more subconscious ways than displayed works. To process my own dispositions, I must employ studies in three-dimensional media. I make objects to learn about myself, but I present my work to others to afford them the same indulgence. The prevailing idea in my work is meditation, for true thought and reflection are in many ways not commonplace. I intend my work to provide one with chances to quiet oneself and imagine, reflect, dream, or ponder. But the base, instinctive reality of the crafted furniture piece is its utilitarian, functional presence in ones life and activity. I design and craft these works to find the art in existence.
