Biographical Information
I feel that ornamentation adds a human value to buildings, a sense of touch, complimenting the architectural space. I am interested in reviving the discipline of architectural metal-work as a contemporary art form, creating work that harmonizes within its surroundings, creating a dialogue with the architectural space, yet reflective to the human scale. (Thompson, 1998)
