WHY MY SOUL IS ON FIRE
There is beauty in destruction, inspiration in transformation and resiliency in strength. All of these attributes come together in my artwork. Steel is beautiful because over time it begins to patina and show its age. I am able to take metal and cut away all of the parts that no longer serve it and transform it into it’s ultimate purpose. Light is able to emerge through the intricately designed cuts. Each piece is transformed into a greater version of itself. I do this by using reclaimed material and using fire and electricity when forging a new piece.
I’m on a mission to create a world full of even more beauty, love and art. My ultimate intention is for my art to inspire others to pursue what sets their soul on fire. I know my destiny is to pursue a life that helps others to be present in the moment and connect with each other. My ambition is to spark a conversation about what they need to let go of to become the best version of themselves.
I hope to create a feeling of enthrallment, enchantment, absorption, attention, captivation, immersion and even magic in others when someone connects with my artwork. Since I was a child I've been fascinated by metal. For my 8th birthday I asked my parents for a metal detector. My first memory is in my Dad's welding shop, him running over to me exclaiming "Don't look at the blue light, don't look at the blue light!". Since that moment I've been captivated by the blue light.
