Lake Two Tower Sonoma State University, CA Silk Gate Santa Cruz Mts, CA Shrine to St Michael and All Angels All Saints' Episcopal Church, San Francisco, CA "Rain Chair" from the exhibition The Outdoor Chair Sausalito, CA My sculpture has always been constructed, assembled. The underpinnings of my work, both sculpture and drawing, come from architecture; its geometry, its engineering, the orderlyness of the architectural form in relationship to the organic, ever changing natural world. In the 1980's I did a series of sculptures that floated on the water. The movement of the sculpture on the water brought whole new dimensions to the work; heavy wood became buoyant, light patterns flickered across the surfaces, the mirror image was reflected on the water. Later I did pieces with hanging ribbons that caught the breeze, making the wind visible. These elements continue to be important in my work.
