Studio Vlock

As an architect and artist, my focus has always been to engage people in a shared experience, capture an authentic sense of place, and create environments that are both functional and beautiful. I view the functional fine art offered through my newest venture, Studio Vlock, as a natural evolution of that vision, one that enables me to design pieces that inspire memorable experiences and create unique environments for social gathering, quiet reflection, and visual delight. Each collection of ‘Fireballs,’ ‘ScreenPlays’ and other sculptural elements tells a story—real or imagined—that is inspired by nature and shared experience. My canvas includes sustainable materials and repurposed objects. Fireballs are re-imagined steel mooring buoys; an object that once anchored boats now serves as an anchor for communal gatherings, transforming outdoor spaces into intimate places. ScreenPlays elevate the fireplace screen from the mundane to the magical; creating an architectural focal point and conversation piece. For me, the work is a journey of discovery and a process of collaboration; an adventure in storytelling and a celebration of nature where everyday objects and spaces become extraordinary experiences. Every piece is handcrafted and custom made for you and your space. Fireballs are designed for wood burning, propane or natural gas. Studio Vlock is delighted to be represented by ÆRENA Galleries & Gardens, in Napa Valley, CA. My work will be on display and used as intended – functional fine art; at Auberge de Soliel Resort, Aerena Gallery at Ma(i)sonry, and their newest venue, RiverHouse in Napa. We can ship anywhere within the US or Internationally.
