THE CENTRAL THEME OF MY WORK AS AN ARTIST HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE HUMAN FIGURE: ITS BEAUTY, ITS COMPLEXITY AND ITS ABILITY TO EXPRESS IN GESTURE AND MOVEMENT THE HIDDEN REALITIES THAT LIE AT THE CORE OF THE HUMAN SPIRIT AND HEART. WHEN CAREFULLY OBSERVED THE BODY IS BUT A THIN SHIELD, A PERMEABLE MEMBRANE THAT CAN OBSCURE BUT NOT OBLITERATE THE PSYCHOLOGICAL AND SPIRITUAL DIMENSIONS OF EACH PERSON.
WILLIAM JAMES WROTE "ALL AROUND US LIE INFINITE WORLDS, SEPARATED ONLY BY THE THINNEST VEILS." IN MY PIECES THERE IS A CONSTANT REACHING OUT BY THE FIGURE, A LONGING FOR FREEDOM, FOR THE BODY TO BREAK OUT OF ITS LIMITED ENVELOPE AND INTO THE LIGHT.
