Artist Statement:
Each of my pieces begins with
fallen aspen branches or
reclaimed wood. I make at
least one trip to the
mountains annually to gather
the aspen that I will use over
the course of the year. I view
this journey as a pilgrimage.
Whenever I return to the aspen
forest to collect wood I am
awed by the strength and the
delicacy of the natural world.
I try to incorporate these
observations into my work. In
my studio I combine the aspen
with broken, discarded and
distressed materials. I use
found materials as visual
metaphors, often choosing
objects which speak to me of
decay and resurrection,
cultural trends, history and
myth. Through the combination
of organic and found elements
I allude to the human impact
upon the environment, the
transience of earthly things,
and the process of change. ...
