I am currently obsessed with the concept of blending the figure into the natural landscape. There is something utterly compelling about the soft curves of the female form within the raw elements of nature. The aging palette of driftwood in conjunction with the tender life of a woman’s skin create a symbiotic narrative that perpetually draws the viewer in and around a given work of art. Clothing, metal, glass, the hard edges of a straight line, … anything artificial tends to take away from the natural beauty of this new collection.

It is said that God created the nude body of Adam from the earth itself and yet the supple edges of the male figure are incomplete without the exquisite curves of Eve. It is this mutual symbiosis that draws the male into and towards the female form and likely why we all feel grounded within its care. It is the sacred space of both our inception, our eventual demise and the beautiful gift in between.
