The first inspiration I ever had was the cosmos, the planetary system.

A mobile is an abstract sculpture made chiefly out of sheet metal, steel rods, wire and wood. Some or all of these elements move, propelled by electric motors, wind, water or by hand.

The underlying sense of form in my work has been the system of the Universe, or part thereof. For that is a rather large model to work from.

I have been making wire jewelry - and think I'll really do something with it, eventually.

The universe is real, but you can't see it. You have to imagine it.

My fingers always seem busier than my mind.

That others grasp what I have in mind seems unessential, at least as long as they have something else in theirs.
