The Phrase Series, 2006
The Phrase Series of low-relief sculptures are on the edge between art and design. The industrial precision with which the steel is cut, the textured powder-coat paint finishes, and lattice-like patterns suggest that these pieces were produced as decorative metal work for the urban dweller. Where the series turns is on the discovery that the patterning is in fact Morse Code and the phrase are the mantras commerce: Location, Location, Location; Volume, Volume, Volume; and Win-Win.
