Abstract
How do we arrive at ourselves, is it the question of nature vs. nurture, or is there a greater sense of manipulation? People are locked into an uncontrollable controlled system, which they both develop and absorb. I think we are created by a society that we ourselves have adopted and manipulate during our lives.
As a ceramic artist, objects which occupy both external and internal space are a constant source of investigation. These forms are used as surrogates or metaphors in investigating how people engage and understand objects, and places. My work is designed in a manner to not exclude the manipulated environments of man, but to be a conduit of understanding between society and the individual.
