In his first solo show in New York, «Ground Control,» the L.A. - based ceramist (previously of Heath Ceramics) presents fresh wheel - thrown sculptures and vessels —
dynamic forms splashed with glazes that balance precision and experimentation — in addition to a site - specific installation.
Driving the brush through his body movements, his style of layered abstract ink -
splashes and
dynamic freehand brushwork in varying intensities of ink create forceful fields of darkness — «emotional explosions» that convey powerful feeling and give
form to the artist's energy and exertion.
