The history of clay reaches back into the earliest memories of our species, as a primary material of creation. I intend my artwork to present a critical view on humanity's use of its gift of creation in our own self-manifested race for progress. They are objects of contemplation, metaphors for the development of our species and the passage of invention through time. Our technological ingenuities have proven our abundance of applied scientific knowledge, while simulantaneously exposing our lack of the wisdom of restraint.
