Flying Fish

Inspired by the flora and fauna of the Hawaiian Islands, “Flying Fish” is about motion, movement, and the diversity of life.

A departure from the purely abstract forms of my prior work, this project started as a commission for the long entryway of a residential home in Tucson, Az.

When asking the client about their aesthetic preferences, I learned they had just come back from a trip to Hawaii and were amazed by the plants and sea life they saw.

What began as a simple sketch soon evolved into an experiment in working with brand new materials and process.
