Stephen Shachtman, Associate - Fort Collins, CO
As a person I’m an explorer, constantly seeking to find something new and stimulating in either a physical or cerebral sense. Sculptures I create circulate in aesthetics in contemporary forms with influences from, science and architecture. These inspirations inform me in creating series’ with specific dialogue due to process‘, dimensions and material usage Depending on the sculptural forms and concepts, a few primary materials employed are; copper, glass, and steel.
