“I was schooled in the traditions of Modernism, influenced by British and American sculptors of the late ’50s, and chose stained glass as my medium. I like the intensity of its changing color with interaction of light. Its challenge was to make it sculptural, free it from its architectural, cathedral settings. I wanted to realize landscape sculpture, like those of Henry Moore and Alexander Calder.”
