Current Projects
October 1999

"Currently I am cutting back on teaching commitments in order to concentrate on producing more work, including some large-scale sculpture. I continue to think about the interface among various influences—ordinary life and the natural world, cultural and social codes, science and the acquisition of knowledge, the reality of our triune creator God.

Once the concepts are in place, construction processes are often low-tech and require a slow, labor-intensive repetition. Right now, I am making several new pieces out of accumulated garden hoses, lamp shades, and plastic patio cover panels. Work will be exhibited in the fall of 1999 at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, MI, and the Irvine Fine Arts Center in Irvine, CA, and in the winter of 2000, at the Tryon Center for Visual Art in Charlotte, NC. I am contributing an essay on contemporary sculpture to a book on art and Incarnation, edited by Dr. Jeremy Begbie, planned for publication in fall, 2000."
