Designer | Fabricator | Sculptor
I am Michael Kerry Brown and material, form, and content are the building blocks of my art. They are interchangeable and have no set hierarchy for me. Over the course of my sculptural career, my explorations have been occupied with understanding the characteristics, strengths, and weaknesses of materials.
Characteristics such as texture, color, plasticity, current applications, and their potential applications. Each material has a visual and emotional signature for me. Matching that signature to a form is what determines the content I am trying to express.
For the last 15 years, my material of choice has focused on glass and I want my forms to be open to interpretation. I feel no need to explain every nuance of my art, people should be able to view my work, make their own observations and draw their own conclusions.
