Inspired by the quest to fly, “Evolution of Flight” combines
the aerodynamic forms of a plane’s fuselage
with the wings of a bird in flight. This sculpture is an
example of how our visions and fantasies may, however seemingly
impossible, become reality.
“Evolution of Flight” has the fuselage of
a plane and wings like a bird. This sculpture is my attempt
to envision man’s early fantasy as it evolved into
the reality of today’s sophisticated aircraft that
many of us take for granted.
Discovering a passion for
sculpture as a student at the Rhode Island School of Design
and working as an apprentice sculpting memorials back in
Rhode Island, my style has evolved over the last thirty
years working on multiple bodies of work. In recent years
I’ve been doing large
scale sculpture for public spaces. I still enjoy creating
smaller pieces in my favorite medium, stone. However, I
will often use different mediums to convey the effect that
I am trying to create occasionally using a combination
of mixed media.
