STUDIO WORK

Independent works exploring form, perception, and human presence

Across sculpture and painting, works inspired by a consistent intention: to create forms that feel present, balanced, and uplifting.

King Tot (Flying). Stainless steel. Private installation.

TOT SERIES

The Tot series explores balance, presence, and lift through a distilled human figure—at once grounded and buoyant.
At its core, the work holds a sense of openness and play: a quiet monument to sun, water, and a kind of enduring childishness.

CONCEPT STUDIES

These works are developed in response to a particular place, person, or idea—projects I felt compelled to explore based on a strong personal interest in the subject, the site, or both.

Some remain independent studies, while others continue to inform future work.
