Biographical Information
"My work is a visual representation of a complex spiritual response to specific places and specific people in my life. The pieces have very little to do with pure design, depending more on form as a communication of the content of an idea. I have a visceral response to the materials I use, precious metals and stones, which contributes to the form and structure of my work." Corwin, 1991
