I was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, raised in Fitchburg, Massachusetts, achieved a BFA in Sculpture from Boston University, and now live and work in Pawtucket, Rhode Island.
For many years the themes of my work found their core in the many conflicts and harmonies of duality. Life and death, the beautiful, the ugly, comfort and anxiety, the divine and mundane. They all embrace or battle in a search for balance. Each piece was a story taken out of context, born of a dream, and wrought into a half-life for the viewer to explore and identify with. I was swirling in a whirlpool of thoughts and emotions, grasping out to my art, trying to stay above water.
These days, to keep centered, hopeful, and empathic, I choose to focus on things and experiences in my life that bring me joy, wonder, or a sense of the sublime. I work to share these feelings with the viewer.
Everything a person experiences is filtered through their personal senses, emotions, and experiences. Acknowledging that, I work to capture an idea, presence, or emotion as honestly as I can for myself. When I reach a point where the object speaks to me, I share it, and marvel at the different or similar ways the viewer experiences the object. I hope what I make haunts and touches you as it does me.
