Artist Statement
"I like my work to speak for itself. So I will just say that art in all forms is something us humans need to do. I particularly need to express the perfect imperfection of nature. That I think is what makes it beautiful.
I use the somewhat unusual technique of fusing metals within glass because it adds a vibrant spontaneity to my compositions. My discovery of this technique has evolved from having majored in ceramics at the Tyler School of Art. In my clay work, I often used a glaze called copper red for its vibrant red and purple hues. This led me to experiment with including roofing copper and copper pipes in molten and fused glass. I suspected this might result in similar hues. To my delight, the process produced similar reds and purples as well as a range of other colors such as orange and silver. I have been in love with the process since, and have improved it over the past 6 years. I now include brass foil and colored glass powder to complement the copper. The exact outcome of the colors and tones are unpredictable, making each piece inimitably unique."

Woensdag 15 oktober, nodigde de Minister van Ontwikkelingssamenwerking, Charles Michel, in samenwerking met de Belgische Coalitie tegen het gebruik van kindsoldaten, 60 Franstalige en Nederlandstalige leerlingen van het Notre Dame-college uit Basse-Wavre en van het Sint-Jozefscollege uit Aarschot uit om de film “Ezra” te bekijken. De film, die herhaaldelijk in de prijzen is gevallen, gaat over een jongen die onder dwang ingelijfd wordt bij milities in Sierra Leone en na de oorlog zijn leven moet hervatten.
Na afloop van de film bracht de Coalitie een debat op gang zodat de leerlingen en de Minister de mogelijkheid hadden om ideeën uit te wisselen.
Samen gaven ze hun Rode handen als teken van protest tegen het gebruik van kindsoldaten in gewapende conflicten. Voor meer informatie over deze campagne kan je terecht op de site www.kindsoldaat.be.
