My inspirations have largely come from the world of fine art
and in particular from indigenous cultures around the world.
I am seeking to establish a fresh relationship between
the primitive and the sophisticated, traditional and modern,
while maintaining respect for the craft tradition. Primarily made of wood,
my furniture seeks to satisfy functional needs while challenging precedents
of design and concept. In the process, a personal vocabulary has evolved that
reflects these criteria and the landscape that I live in.
