THE WORK OF MAN is a series of graphite drawings, all of which feature or focus on birds. So why is the series called “The Work of Man”? I intend these drawings to raise questions for the viewer. How do these birds relate to a man-made environment? What was the intended purpose of the human construction? Why does the series include drawings of a bird in its natural habitat? Considering that a bird is an ancient symbol for the soul, what resonance do these drawings have for us? What affinities between birds and human beings do they evoke? What contrasts? What human potential?
