Through the art of metal casting, portions of forgotten junkyard relics are transformed and assigned a new function in aluminum, bronze, or iron. Tires become stools, while hubcaps become bowls and tables.
Ever since I played with miniature cars as a child, I have been fascinated by cars and the freedom associated with driving. I continue to play with my collection of car toys in my artwork and give them a new function in my metal objects.
My hope is that these objects that I create will help draw the viewers attention to the simple and unique joy that we derive from the now ubiquitous automobile.
