" Humankind has always been fascinated with fire. Some fear it, and others revel in its presence. The materials I use have a direct relationship to my present understanding of the modern world within a natural landscape. The human-made materials I work with—glass and metal, etc.—are derived from nature, transformed by fire. I integrate these transformed materials with natural objects, e.g. mica or stone, thus reuniting the transformed materials with their past as pure forms of nature. The use of illumination expresses a celebration of this reunification."
