About the skateboards:
“”My aim with this series is to celebrate the iconic nature of the skateboard. As a person who obsesses about all the different wood species, I put these broken and banged up pieces of plywood in the same category as any exotic material. Not because its rare or expensive, but that its been processed in a very unique and specific way. Creatively speaking, this series owes much to the culture and industry of skateboarding. Like making art, skateboarding is a very creative and personal outlet. It is also inherently destructive: boards get cracked, broken and worn down. It is a subtle and unintended type mark making. This series is about layers: it speaks of the utility and beauty of wood, the culture and byproducts of out modern world and the visual/ textural language I’ve developed through my work as an artist.
