I'm a digital sculptor and recovering game programmer.
I've done a lot of research into the physics of light transport - the way light moves through a scene, softly lighting the darker corners by bouncing off objects that are more directly illuminated. Using software of my own devising, I explore this interplay, creating highly realistic images of sculptures that exist only in my mind.
There is a tension in my work between two opposing goals. On the one hand, one of my favourite quotes is Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's "Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away." On the other hand I do have a strong appreciation for the incredibly fine detail to be found in gothic architecture and sculpture, particularly as exemplified by the many cathedrals I visited whilst living in the United Kingdom.
For the moment, the tools that I use constrain me to working at the simpler end of the scale, so I have been concentrating on producing spare and striking images, inspired by the works of Barbara Hepworth, Keizo Ushio, and Henry Moore.
