Statement/Bio:
I am a figurative sculptor who
likes to work in portraiture and the human form. Working in
clay or directly in plaster, stone or wax, the figure is my
vehicle of expression. My goal is to utilize a creative language
to express clearly my emotional response to the human condition.
Approaching the human figure and mind
with great respect, I find it an unending education voyage
that I enjoy through all stages including the search, struggles
and discoveries. Sometimes I make a fast maquette to catch
a fleeting thought, but most of the time when an idea has
fermented in my mind, I get right to making the armature.
All the excitement and passion is poured into the actual banding,
cutting, pushing and stretching as the sculpture progresses
and take dimensional space and evolves into a tangible form.
Greek art is a strong influence. I grew
up in Athens where sculpture was very visible in my every
day life and had a profound effect in my awareness and love
of art.
