Silence Noise Forms

See, perceive nature, capture fleeting moments in a form, in a material that is natural permanent.
Grew up in the swiss mountain area as the seventh child of an Irish immigrant and swiss emigrant without being surrounded by the sea.
I collected stones instead of shells, but left to find them and more in other places.
Nature and people, life, are what drive my work.

Sculpture is like a jar for energy. It`s like telling a story, finished by the observer. Art needs public space, art is for people, it can be like a window opening a view to a different world.
