Philosophy

Constantly questioning man-made constructs, I search for a universal language. Through this body of work, I intend to define my own logos. Using a system of logos, I explore my relationship with wood through metaphors and parables. Utilizing various natural, synthetic and man-made woods through my process, I create these works while investigating my own personal and ritualistic relationship with the material. My allegorical imagery illustrates a symbiotic world where man and tree coexist in peace or chaos with their environments. My narrative explores life and death through the various relationships that men and trees share ecologically, industrially, and spiritually.
