Clarion

Clarion is an abstract outdoor sculpture I reworked last summer for a solo exhibition in Denver. It is both architectural and anthropomorphic - meant to evoke a trumpeting gesture and the way an animal pulls against a harness.

Extempore #54, December 20, 2022

I call this series Extempore, which means “without premeditation,” reflecting an intuitive process that I use to fabricate complex forms without designing them beforehand. Each is fully realized within a calendar day. There are currently 55 in the collection.

Hortus

In March 2024 I installed this large public art sculpture at the Geneva Public Library in Illinois. It was commissioned by the library from my winning design entry. The design was inspired by garden tools, vibrant flowers, and bud vases. It is 16 feet tall and made of Corten weathering steel.
