- Biographical Information
-
The subjects for these pieces were chosen after consultation with the users, faculty, and architects of the buildings, a process which I appreciated. They were subjects which I found challenging and stimulating. The pieces were intended to say something about the function of the buildings and to provide an additional way for the buildings to speak for themselves and to be meaningful to those who work and study in them. I enjoy making art pieces that become part of the everyday lives of their owners and offer a respite from the prosaic (Chabre, 1988).
