Nature, For Me Is Raw And Dangerous

The Things That I Make Are That Which A Person Will Make. They're Not Meant To Mimic Nature. They Are Nothing But The Result Of A Hand Of A Person.

I Think I Have Been Fashioned By The Fickle Weather Of Britain That It Is - It's Forever Changing. There's No Kind Of Constant Sun Or Dry Weather Or Freezing Weather, And I'm Always Having To Change And Adapt To That.

As With All My Work, Whether It's A Leaf On A Rock Or Ice On A Rock, I'm Trying To Get Beneath The Surface Appearance Of Things. Working The Surface Of A Stone Is An Attempt To Understand The Internal Energy Of The Stone.

Nature, For Me Is Raw And Dangerous And Difficult And Beautiful And Unnerving.

Fire Is The Origin Of Stone.by Working The Stone With Heat, I Am Returning It To Its Source.
