Meeting of the Minds
This mixed-media sculptural installation combines kinetics and large scale forms to create an interactive metaphor for the communication of ideas. The transmission of thoughts and opinions becomes an art form and this plays out kinetically with a six foot diameter track on which two antique “Gang Cars” travel around at the push of a button, activated by the viewer, colliding at random points around the circle.

Silver Schism
One of three in a series of castings in different media. This version addresses the downfall of self-evaluation performed in isolation. A mirror is inset into the waist of the figure, where the figure’s gaze is set, seeing only his own reflection. The figure is captured in stride and references the movement inherent to life, while also giving pause to a moment of self-contemplation and awareness.

Moments After the Fall
8 ft. x 7 ft. – Neon and wood
The neon for this artwork was appropriated from discarded commercial signage, none of which had figurative elements. The discarded and refurbished elements came from a Hallmark storefront sign, a Taco Bell sign, and a Red Dog beer sign. There is a certain irony here that shouldn’t be missed.
