Artist Statement
Whether it was robots in film, television, or the tin toy wind-up robots I used to play with as a kid, they have always captured my imagination. So much so that creating robots of my own design has become my career. I use objects old and new to build them, with some of the recycled materials dating back to the turn of the 20th century.
I am constantly intrigued by the shape and form that these miscellaneous parts form when assembled together.
