Artist Statement - Direct Metal Sculpture
With a filmmakers eye and a welders arc, I bring light, motion and mass to my work.
I use steel, stone and concrete as the building blocks to frame objects and images, and to direct or reflect light. I contrast weathered and polished, dark and light, mass and space. I often work in four dimensions, allowing time to show the kinetic aspects of a piece. Coming from a cinema background, I feel that motion is critical, whether it be the intrinsic movement within the work, or the movement the observer brings to the work.
The processes of welding have allowed my dreams to soar. I enjoy the fabrication as much as the design, and usually refine the concept during construction. In the end, I feel there is some of Vulcans* power in my work.
*Vulcan - the Roman god of fire and metalworking (not to be confused with any Startrek characters or species).
The story board document details some changes made to an indie rock music video. It was decided to add a shot of the band entering the studio to follow conventions. Shots of the drummer had to be changed to other band members due to difficulties finding someone to play the drummer. Some location issues also arose, forcing a change from a shot of a painter outside to a shot of him looking out a window, though this was felt to better fit the video's storyline.
The documentary uses animated graphics to visually represent the immense death tolls of different countries in WW2, putting impact on the devastation of the war. It also uses existing images to show the horrors of the war, which have a greater impact than graphics. Interviews provide a first-person perspective on experiences and details not covered elsewhere. Found footage, like CCTV from Columbine, makes the events feel real and shows the destruction, while news coverage demonstrates the scale. Videos and images alongside interviews keep documentaries engaging by providing visual context for discussion.

A bedroom is more than just a place to sleep; it's where you find comfort and a sense of peace. It's the room that feels like a hug after a busy day. The bed, soft and inviting, is where you can sink into relaxation, with pillows that cradle your head and blankets that make you feel cozy and safe. It's a place where you can let go of the world and just be.
You might have a dresser or a closet, a place to tuck away clothes and personal items, but its also where you keep the little things that make you feel at homelike a favorite book on the nightstand or a candle that smells like calm. Soft lighting adds warmth, and windows let in just enough natural light during the day to keep things bright but not too harsh.
Decor adds that personal touchwhether its a plant in the corner, art on the walls, or a rug that feels nice underfoot. Its where you can get away from everything, to recharge or reflect, and to make the space feel completely yours. A bedroom is the ultimate safe haven, designed for comfort, rest, and a sense of belonging.
