I am fascinated by rhythms - rhythms of nature, music, and life. Inspired by sensual forms in nature, my sculpture evokes an essence of livings things. Each piece has elements hinting to the life cycle of conception, birth, aging, and death. Using the language of abstract sculptural forms, each piece is a whimsical, energetic, animated, rhythmic, colorful, and sometimes erotic, focused study of life.
