DINOSAUR

In my work, I try to create objects with simple forms.  I think of dinosaurs as strong and docile creatures.  Often times I envision them as gentle, aquatic animals. Since I live in a place surrounded by lagoons and water, fish and other aquatic creatures are inspirational to me.  With this series, I have tried to integrate the strength of the dinosaur with the fluidity of the fishes that inhabit the waters of Venice.
