Sculpture, Rubber on Steel

Ships in a Crate
I frequently cycle past bulls in the fields of Ireland where I live. I am enamored by the extreme strength and gentleness that are diabolically contained within these animals, and their expressive eyes seem to convey stories of both their captivity and the wild spirit they have preserved. 'Bull's Head' is created from recycled/upcycled bicycle tires that are wrapped around and screwed onto a welded steel armature. I hope to inspire a more environmentally sustainable genre of art.

Ireland
I create figurative, portrait, and animal sculptures from used tires and steel. A former stone sculptor, I became inspired by the natural landscape of my home in Dingle, Ireland and my love of cycling to find a more environmentally sustainable and less chemical-intensive art medium than the traditional stone works. Used bicycle tires discarded by local bike shops – which are both highly flexible and also durable - were a clear choice for me given my love of cycling and interest in recycling. Through my artwork, I love to explore the body form, whether human or animal, while striving for classical elegance. Using tires - a new and original medium - I combine a classical style with a contemporary spin, to facilitate a wider appreciation of this unique art form. I especially enjoy that my sculptures give a new use to old tires, bringing environmental awareness to the arts.
