Artist Statement
My work reduces carbon contributions to the atmosphere. I rescue architectural and industrial discards, furniture parts, and parts of fallen trees sparing them from land fills and smelting furnaces, resurrecting them into one-of-a-kind functional sculptures. Virtually all elements are salvaged, found, recycled or repurposed.
