Ritual jar # 7 Sculpture

I am a designer and maker of things; ceramic art, tableware sets for industry, prototypes for ceramic manufacturing, architectural ceramics, residential architecture, furniture for custom homes and restaurants, light fixtures, landscape architecture, painting, murals, wall reliefs, drawing, sculpting, textiles, rugs, etc... My aesthetic concerns revolve around an object’s presence, its posture, how the object affects or commands the space around it, its function and efficiency in articulating itself as well as where it fits into the heredity of its genre. These principals apply to the design of a house or a humble tea bowl and everything in between. The work at its best reveals what and how the material best expresses itself through the making process without ornamentation or fussiness. Directness, contrast, organized, contextual, resolved, contemplative are qualities I pursue for my work.
