I am a sculptor and architect based in Cape Breton. In the past five years I have established a number of public art installations and showed my work at various indoor and outdoor solo exhibitions in Canada and Europe. One of the central themes of my work is the contemplative human being, as an abstract figure, reflecting on the longing for harmony and communication in the modern world. This finds continuation in my concept for the People's Place Library outdoor sculpture. In its translation, it indicates a community supporting its library, as symbolized by book supports and a stack of books. The bronze book supports are abstract figures of today's community members holding up traditionally styled marble books containing the knowledge of centuries.
