Time gives growth, it gives continuity and it gives change. And in the case of some sculptures, time gives a patina to them.

I soon realised that what had happened on a small scale cannot necessarily be repeated on a larger scale. The stones were so big that the amount of heat required was prohibitively expensive and wasteful.

The essence of drawing is the line exploring space.

If you've ever come across a tree that you've lived with for many years and then one day it's blown over, there's incredible shock and violence about that.

I think that any sculpture is a response to its environment. It can be brought to life or put to sleep by the environment.

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

Abandoning the project was incredibly stressful after having gone through the process of building the room, installing the kiln, collecting the stones, sitting with the kiln day and night as it came to temperature, experiencing the failures.
