"I have always had a profound desire to be creative and to hone my skills, furthering my ability to express a creative thought. The pursuit of perfecting a repertoire of skills is a significant and driving force behind why I create. I feel that perfecting ones ability to control any given medium better equips an artist to develop a creative thought into its fullest potential. I have spent the past twelve years honing such skills in my work as the co-founder of the Milwaukee based design-build firm, Flux Design." - Jesse Meyer
This piece is inspired by "man" and our interaction with the technologies we create. The wheel form represents technology while the figure within the wheel represents human kind. Together they symbolize the product of this relationship. The man is armored in and propelling himself by means of technology, however, how we use or "Wield" this power, is a treacherous balancing act. Together man and technology can be an advantageous relationship in pursuit of our future, yet failure to control our means of growth responsibly can lead to an accident of our own demise.
