How long does it Take to create one of your Sculptures, Start to Finish?

That really depends on the scale and complexity of the piece—and sometimes a bit of luck in sourcing the right materials. A smaller sculpture might take around 40 hours to complete, while larger, more intricate works can stretch into the hundreds of hours over several weeks or months.

But the time spent actively building is only part of the story. I often spend hours—even days—digging through bins of reclaimed parts, vintage electronics, and deconstructed luxury goods to find just the right combination of elements. Every piece is a puzzle, and part of the magic is in discovering which materials belong together.

I also take pride in adding hidden details—layered components, engraved textures, or subtle references—that reward close inspection. These thoughtful touches aren’t always visible in photos, but they’re what give each sculpture a deeper story and soul.
