"Once I have a shape I find interesting, I’ll hold it in my head for a few weeks, translating it into furniture. I try to forget everything I know about furniture that came before and ‘reinvent the wheel’ with every new piece... The work, for me, is more about investigating and curiosity, so nothing is really planned until it happens. I like the spontaneity, something James Krenov referred to in his own practice as ‘composing.’ Composing has to do with listening and guiding—with a light touch."
