"Being an artist is not something that I do; it is something that I am. As humans, we are all the sum of our life experiences, and, as artists, our life experiences are expressed through our work. My work speaks of the simplicity of form through the qualities of quietness, cleanliness and elegance while reducing elements to their simplest forms. I search for the spirit in each piece."
