“Though the use of glass, and other metals, I am exploring the progression of life and its air of mystery;
the boundaries we face, how we deal with the obstacles and the spirit we create.
I believe its transparency is revealing and spiritual. In all its elegance and brilliance glass is a metaphor for life, a frozen moment; a sublime evocation of life.”
