Platicas:
As a part of nature mankind's marks and patterns are based on the right angle, square, rectangle, grids; forms that are essentially oppositional in nature. These marks and patterns are seen everywhere in human constructions. Growth forms operate differently with patterns and marks of threes, fives. These patterns are more influential rather than oppositional. My work mostly is comprised of growth forms which arise from the quiddity of clay, which in its raw state is a flowing form. Seldom will there appear the marks of man unless these marks are being subsumed by more organic forms arising from the process of formation.
I like to draw on the surface of my forms. These drawings arise from the dynamics and stresses inherent in the form itself.
Clay and it's demands are the subject of my work.
