About Us
"Given the fact of the immortality of the spirits,
could these be the reasons I wanted to be born – these paradoxes of things, the eternal changes, the riddle of living while one is alive, the mystery of being…the probability that no injustice lasts forever, no love ever dies, that no light is ever really extinguished, that no true road is ever complete, that no way is ever definitive, no truth ever final, and that there are never really any beginnings or endings? It may be that in the land of origins, when many of us were birds, even all these reasons had nothing to do with why I wanted to live." From The Famished Road by Ben Okri
My passion is the elegant form – the deceptively
simple form. It is the asymmetrical silhouette with a
strong sense of movement.
I like vessels of all kinds: vases, pitchers, bowls,
cups. It appeals to me that vessels have a use and
that they are beautiful by themselves. I like working
with the inside and outside of a form. Each piece
changes or grows as you walk around it. They also
feel good to hold, and call to the viewer to pick them
up.
