Sculpture in Architecture and Brick Art
- Artist’s Process: Inspired by the ancient Babylonians, the artist carves and molds unfired clay bricks, fires them at 2000°F, and assembles them with mortar to create sculptures.
- Medium: Works with clay-rich materials found in the Carolinas, USA, creating brick sculptures that connect history, environment, and personal identity.
- Public Art: Focuses on high-relief and 3D sculptures, often depicting people with nuanced gestures and expressions, challenging the material’s limitations.
- Notable Works:
- “Life is an Open Book” (Downtown Charlotte, NC)
- “A Mindful Journey” (West Columbus High School, NC)
- “The Arts Alfresco” (Black Creek Greenway, Cary, NC)
- Public Art Impact: Public sculptures inspire interaction and interpretation, encouraging personal connections with art.
