About Me

Ithaca, New York, United States
I have always been inspired by the mobiles of Alexander Calder, and I try to capture the same lightness and grace in my own sculptures. However, being a particle physicist, I am also interested in bringing invisible, abstract ideas to life and giving them tangible form. Mapping the space between the poetic and the analytic is the unspoken subject of my work. My sculptures range in size from miniature wall mobiles to room-filling installations, and I employ a variety of materials: metal, wood, stone, polymer clay, paper, and found objects. I work primarily with a geometric vocabulary, arranging blocks of color into compositions that are both organized and flexible. Indeed, it is this balance between stability and chaos, control and movement, that animates my work and my imagination.

Holiday Spirit Store



Formerly known as the Ithaca Holiday Store, this seasonal store on the Ithaca Commons is open yearly during November and December. This year we have a new name, a new logo, a new look, and a new website. We have taken over the old Plantations flower shop (subsequently People's Dollar Store), and we will be transforming it over the next few weeks with lots of funky art by local artists and goods from your favorite Farmers' Market vendors. Check out our list of artists and artisans.

The grand opening is on November 6, First Friday Gallery Night, 5-8 pm.
