I choose materials that best communicate a concept or experience that is personal to me. When working in clay, I use hand building as well as wheel throwing techniques when constructing my pieces. I might choose the seductive plasticity of porcelain with its vitreous translucency or the earthy grounded weight of grogged stoneware. The materials take form in a visual language and become multiples in installations, or pieces in a series based on a theme.
