About This Installation

My work is best described as abstract expressionism, as I love to dabble in non-ordinary reality. The main inspiration for all my work over the years has been the great jazz artists of the 50s and 60s and abstract artists of the mid-twentieth century including Joan Miro, Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, David Smith, and, of course, Alexander Caulder.

Working in wood, metal & stone, I design and produce modern contemporary sculpture & mobiles. I've always had a great interest in sculpture, especially kinetic sculpture.
