Using the spring steel pieces between the facings of a manual car clutch as the basic structure of the piece, I welded the parts together with thin rod. I call these car parts "leaves". Each leaf is about one and a half to two inches wide. I photographed this against the sky, used the computer to add colour to the background and to fill in the "dots". What we forget is that the car is an incredibly complex device. Even though it has primitive aspects-- still mostly uses the infernal combustion engine--modern cars depend on finely tooled parts. The amazing thing to me is that in the US, more than 10million are junked a year. What does 10 million cars look like? And keep in mind that only about 75% of a car can be recycled. You do the math. It just seems to me, we should be thinking a whole lot more about the effects of our transportation choices

Though I trained in Ceramics, I had exposure to sculpture while in art school and after many years as a ceramicist, I moved into sculpture exploring mediums until I discovered car parts, welding and shovels. It's been downhill ever since. During my car part exploration, I was also a transportation activist. I discovered car parts in Maine in 2005, moved to Watertown, NY  in 2009, to Kingston, Ontario in 2011 and Fort Erie Ontario in 2020.  My art career has consisted of solo shows,  grants for community based art and schools and an art activity printing t-shirts with car parts and tires that I presented at festivals, art centres and schools. I currently have some gallery representation, but am mostly  going the on-line sales route.
