Love Wins again! I was asked to create a sculpture for the Lawrence Ellison Institute for Transformative Medicine. A world class cancer research facility in Los Angeles, California. I gave the subject matter some considerable thought and this happy, inspiring wall sculpture was the result. I’m in good company here... Ai Wei Wei, Koons, Indiana, Hirst... Its an honor.

Snapshots from my recent installation at the Lawrence Ellison Institute for Transformative Medicine. When Mr. Ellison isn't building the largest yachts on the planet, or running the largest companies on the planet, or buying actual Hawaiian Islands (you read that right)... he is also doing amazing and wonderful and beautiful things like this world class cancer and research institute in Los Angeles. Its pretty much, (the Oracle) Larry Ellison's world....my sculpture just gets to live in it...⁠

⁠The Ellison project has been such a beautiful opportunity that just fell from the sky. To even be considered to take part in such a prestigious institution as the Larry Ellison Institute for Transformative Medicine has been an honor. This honor is one I have worked to achieve for much of my career.
