ARTIST STATEMENT

The fused glass work expresses my desire to transform monochromatic flat sheets into vessels and sculptural objects that display the unique beauty of the material through the use of color, texture and shape and by taking advantage of its inherent refractive and reflective qualities.

The designs my pieces range from very graphical to organic forms to playful whimsy and reveal the versatility of the material. The physical nature of glass is both rigid and fragile. It is a wonderful, fluid substance which comes alive with changing light. My inspiration for the glass pieces come from many sources. The ideas can originate in the shapes and colors of nature as well as the designs of modern society, moods and countless other influences.

The attraction of working with glass is the wide variety of possibilities of the medium which has "a mind of it's own". The challenges push me to further experiment, understand the physical properties  and to explore the infinite potential which is only limited by the imagination. Glass is quite tempramental; there are frequent surprises when unloading the kiln that often enhace the organic nature and beauty of the work.
