Many of my sculptures are engineered 3D assemblages made up of mostly found objects. I have fun fitting things together that weren't originally meant to be together and bringing something new into existence. The tossed-out junk that I usually use has some spirit reminiscent of another time, place or function and the resulting combinations can sometimes be humorous, sometimes angst-driven, and sometimes both. I hope these sculptures are provocative and entertaining. Here's an assortment from the last several years. Some of them you can see in videos on the next page...
