November 1996. Bronze, green granite. Dimensions: 29 × 13 × 6 in (74 × 33 × 15 cm).

Private Collection.

I am drawn to horns, antlers, and nautilus-like forms because nature has already endowed them with an extraordinary geometric logic—the arc, spiral, taper, and expanding curve. Cast in bronze, these organic structures become part of my constructed vocabulary, moving freely between natural form and human implement. Their long cultural associations also allow them to evoke classical mythology—from the cornucopia and Amalthea to broader ideas of strength, abundance, survival, and transformation—without becoming literal illustrations.
