Multiple layers of enamel paint, oil paint and metallics on a wood structure with an iron oxide coating. Various "weathering" techniques, such as a rust 'activator', an oil-based paint wash and dry-brush, are applied to certain areas.
Additional components may be constructed of cast resin and machined metal parts.
The final piece is sealed with a lacquer coating.

STATEMENT
A strict and systematic organization of components define the work and reveal a discipline that is unmistakably architectural. At first glance, the geometric forms seem strangely familiar as if seen somewhere before - but where - when? Upon closer examination - perhaps the designs are remnants of some distant and secrete civilization or even an, as of  yet, unknown and mysterious future. The forms are intentionally abstract giving shape to a brief moment of design inspiration. Schematic concepts emerge as built objects without the practical or functional restrictions that necessarily accompany the development of an architectural or industrial product.
