I am fascinated by our efforts to decorate and embellish objects since ancient times. The designs are often inspired by the natural beauty that surrounds us.

Our desire to adorn objects and ourselves is not dissimilar to the feathers of a male bird attracting a mate and flowers enticing insects to pollinate.

Our definition of art continues to evolve.

What I’ve deemed to be superfluous rather than essential are perhaps vestiages of our attempts and will to survive.
