Specializing in Geometric Abstract Sculpture

Artist Statement

​

    I am a contemporary geometric abstract sculptor. My sculptural works are the result of geometric abstraction and are primarily abstract expressions of beauty, nature, freedom, human progress, modern architecture, and cultural empowerment. My approach to abstract sculpture production seeks to create compositional balance, harmony, movement, and contrast that captures the viewer’s heightened attention. It also invites the viewer to look beyond the constraints of sculpture composition, form, and space into a deeper world of possibilities.

    My approach to fine art sculpture composition and design evolves from the constructivist and abstract expressionist sculpture traditions. It is heavily influenced by Fletcher Benton’s “Folded-Circle” series, David Smith’s “Cubi” series, George Rickey’s “Cluster of Cubes” series, and other works of geometric abstraction in the aforementioned traditions. Several other abstract art traditions emphasizing the use of repeating geometric lines, shapes, or other visual forms. have greatly influenced my approach to sculpture design and hence, the repeating pattern constructions embedded across many of my sculptures. As well, I am inspired by approaches to sculpture design that focus on geometric elegance and cleanliness of lines and shapes, creating timeless aesthetics. 

 

    A part of my sculpture composition work is based on a central idea in the new constructivism of Fletcher Benton - namely, that duality exists in everything. As a firm believer of this idea, I often place and combine
opposite elements and objects in the same three-dimensional space to achieve contrast and duality related composition. This type of compositional approach covers a broad range of opposite pairs in
abstract sculpture art such as balance and imbalance; light and dark; chaos and order; symmetry and asymmetry; and continuity and change. Although I frequently introduce ideas into my works that oppose each
other, I am always looking for overall balance.

 

    Lastly, my sculpture composition and design work seeks to achieve the following two objectives: (1) to provide sculptures that reflect meticulous craftsmanship and structural strength; and (2) to provide sculptures with durable materials, which can reflect, absorb, or blend with their surrounding environments.

    As I move into an advanced number of years of sculpting, I have a growing obsession for creating as many new sculptures as possible, challenging art boundaries and conventions, and impacting the
artistic growth of viewers of my work for many years to come.
