Public art has been a cornerstone of my life’s work, offering a platform to communicate, celebrate, and provoke discussion around culture, tradition, and the possibility of positive change. Through artistic stewardship, I take great pride in creating sculptural works that resonate with cultural significance, engage with important societal issues, and inspire enlightenment. My art is designed to spark dialogue about social, environmental, and cultural matters, and I approach each project with a deep commitment to highlighting diverse voices and experiences.

In my practice, I deconstruct shapes, forms, and symbols drawn from historical concepts, ethnic traditions, and time-honored techniques. I’ve worked with themes such as civil rights, human rights, environmental sustainability, and cultural diversity, using public sculpture, metal fabrication, and bronze casting to give these important issues a tangible form. The process of making art for public spaces allows me to contribute to conversations that matter, especially for those whose voices may otherwise be marginalized or overlooked.

The materials I choose—ferro-cement, bronze casting, wood elements, and kinetic features—are driven by the specific themes and narratives of each project. I aim to create works that are not only visually captivating but also deeply engaging, drawing viewers in both aesthetically and emotionally. Through interaction, my sculptures invite patrons to reflect on the stories and messages embedded within.

Each body of work is often part of a larger collection, with individual pieces grouped around a central theme, allowing for a deeper exploration of ideas as the project evolves. The research and production phases of my work continually open new doors, leading to fresh perspectives and inspiring the next creative journey. Ultimately, I hope that my work encourages both young people and community members to find their own voice through art and to experience cultural enrichment that deepens their connection to the world around them.
