People are the nature of the city, and you can feel it in the pavement.

Fire is the origin of stone.By working the stone with heat, I am returning it to its source.

We often forget that WE ARE NATURE. Nature is not something separate from us. So when we say that we have lost our connection to nature, we’ve lost our connection to ourselves.

The stones tear like flesh, rather than breaking. Although what happens is violent, it is a violence that is in stone. A tear is more unnerving than a break.

If I had to describe my work in one word, that word would be time.

I go way beyond just the wood and stone but to the process of growth and farming and the tensions between the two.

I'm not a performer, in that I don't like the public, but I work in that respect.
