    Visual Arts: Sculpture
    My fun 3D work tries to capture the unseen energies that flow and connect us all. My WuHao Tai Ji practice helps me experience the chi. With a variety of waves of energy moving around and through us like sound, radio waves and astro-particles all too small to see, I’m trying to visualize what connects us to each other and to nature. My sculpture practice is an exploration of these synergies.

    Visual Arts: Kinetic, Other, Sculpture
    With a background in architecture, I have been involved with public art as a kinetic sculptor for over forty years both in this country and abroad. Since 2012 I have been in partnership with David Colbert as Prentice Colbert, Inc. My career has been devoted to meeting the requirements of the space, the schedule and the budget. Our hope is that the work will engage the mind and lift the spirit. The changing patterns produced by slight currents of air are what we count on to repeatedly draw the eye of the viewer to the work. Works are made of elements linked by a wire web engineered to allow them to move individually and in concert. The action of the air moving over the individual elements causes the whole linked mass to move and change shape. We take it as an article of faith that the air around us moves in ways that are organic, whimsical, and unpredictable. We therefore assume that if we were to abdicate the design to the wind, the work would take on these same qualities.
