I work with ready-mades and take a minimalist approach by elevating common objects to celebrate industrial designers who have created artistic pieces that are often under appreciated. I serve up objects in unexpected ways, but try not to disguise their original purpose. I often create pieces that are tactile, which encourages the viewer to touch the art. I like to add a title to my pieces that are intellectually playful and produce a connection to the viewer.

Like most artists, I strive to elicit emotion from my viewers. Specially, I’ve accomplished my objective when a viewer reacts with an amusing "aha" moment. 

When working with ready-mades, my design process typically involves looking at a found object and seeing how it might be reinterpreted. I sketch the object to determine the overall size, proportions, and display requirements. Then I actually manipulate the object, eliminating some original parts, twisting, bending, repainting, resizing, or adding accoutrements to the piece. I take an additive approach to creating assemblage sculpture.

My materials are mostly wood, metal and found objects. My methods of attachment are primarily joining parts together with screws, bolts, and adhesives. Some of my sculptures are illuminated and motor driven to provide a kinetic style.
