ARTIST BACKGROUND:

In this troubled world of earthquakes, floods, wars and global warming, it is a sheer delight to find a dedicated
sculptor with such an ironic sense of humour and a highly developed sense of the ridiculous.

directions and immaculately constructed, he also likes in catching the spectator unawares. Things are frequently
not quite as they first seem …
