Wind and water,

Blow and flow through.

Bends snake, turn and reduce.

Power pipe, pressure, uplift propeller.

After working with found metal objects over the last 15 years, I have found myself drawn to, and engaging, a broad cross section of forms, many from industries such as farming, automotive, industrial, marine and aviation.Certain shapes have provoked different creative responses at different points in my career. Many of my works have had underlying water themes. I have been working on a series of flowing organic forms that have been preoccupying my mind using tapering water pipe bends.
