Artist Statement:
I have built “Burning Art”
from my dreams. It has come a
long way from the
semi-sheltered studio in the
Fourth Ward of Atlanta. It
really makes me appreciate the
rain proof haven I have here
in the hills of Tennessee.
Burning Art is about
appreciating and fostering the
inner child in all of us. My
goal is to build art that you
can play on. Huge
installation-landscape
sculptures that foster
imagination to play on. It is
important that my art is not
the art one glances at from
outside ropes and barriers,
but one which engulfs the
senses. I imagine jungle gyms
and slides that incorporate
themes that have playful
lessons. ...
