Original artwork description:

This wire wall sculpture is made with 12 gauge (3 mm diameter) steel wire that is powder coated gloss black.

I make wire wall sculptures for public, commercial, and residential location. The wire pieces are the final step in a simplification process that starts with a photograph or group of photographs. I makes and remake a digital line drawing to emphasize only the essence and feel of the subject, then, like the poet who reviews every word, I re-examine every turn and curve as I bend the wire into a sculpture. The final installation, a solid line in space in front of a moving shadow, has scale enough to suit a large wall without dominating the room. My work has been purchased by collectors from all over the world.

Materials used:

steel wire, powder coated black
