ARTIST STATEMENT
My sculptures were created to convey the unity that everyday objects share with our natural world. Most of us do not consider manufactured objects to be a part of Nature, like a waterfall or a pine tree, but separate somehow because they are made by humans. Our perspective on this matter causes us to believe we are separate from the world and therefore all human artifacts are separate from Nature. I believe that this implied separation is one of the reasons we are not mindful of the impact on the environment of our various endeavors. My sculptures are essentially trying to show that human made objects are one with the Earth, not separate at all, and a reminder that we as individuals are not separate either. Thanks Rich
