Wire Mesh - A Medium For Sculpture

The challenge of an artist lies in the expression of beauty - not necessarily in regard to the aesthetic, but to that which lies closest to a truth. In case of wire mesh, the aesthetic is an integral part of the expression, but the forms are used to convey emotions or ideas. Beyond the decorative, figurative work in wire mesh is meant to engage the intellect and curiosity of the viewer, stimulating, among other things, memory. The memory of a twist or turn, of a perspective or chance expression of the face or body - even the occasion of a fleeting experience is brought back to the viewer in its fullness and its scope.
