About the Artist
Crafted in wood. Guided by memory, tension, and nature.
I am a woodcarver living and working in Northern New Jersey. I create small-scale sculptures that explore resilience, nature, and the social and philosophical questions that shape human experience.
Wood is central to my practice not only as a material, but as a carrier of time and memory. I work with grain, resistance, and irregularity rather than attempting to erase them. Many pieces begin from fragments, damaged sections, or naturally constrained forms, allowing those conditions to guide the final structure.
My work moves between symbolic, figurative, and abstract languages. Some pieces respond directly to moments of social tension or collective experience; others are quieter reflections on endurance, beauty, and continuity. I am interested in how modest objects can hold layered meanings without explanation or instruction.
The sculptures are intentionally intimate in scale. They are meant to be encountered slowly, inviting the viewer into a moment of reflection rather than a statement. I see the work not as declarative, but as open—creating space for personal interpretation and quiet engagement.
