For the past twenty years my work has been concerned with interlocking lines and the spaces they form. My interest is in creating a sense of weightlessness and luminescence by the manipulation of narrow gauge industrial wire. I am exploring the contradiction between metal elements known for their strength and durability and the delicacy of the textiles which are created. These lace-like layers of nets allow for transparency and the passage of light and the formation of shadows. In other works the nets are thickly layered and become almost opaque. Lines cross and re-cross to create a
complex fabric and tangle of shadows. The objects appear fragile, but I seek to maintain their strength through the use of these metals. Return to the Game Changers Gallery
