Drawing Through Air
Wall-Based Wire Work
Powder-coated steel traced into figures, objects, and still lives. Form described through absence, the negative space as present as the wire itself.
Tabletop sculptures in powder-coated steel that balance on the edge of gesture. Seated figures, leaning bodies, quiet moments caught mid-thought. From early single-strand experiments to the elegant works of recent years.
Freestanding Wire Work
Outdoor and life-size metalwork that carries the same drawn-line logic of the smaller pieces into monumental territory.

In Context
The work installed in collector’s homes. Essential viewing for understanding scale and presence.
