Initially trained as an illustrator, Puck transitioned into sculpture, becoming a self-taught master of needle-felted wool. His creations are whimsical yet unsettling, often exploring the delicate balance between beauty and grotesque imagery. Drawing inspiration from myths, fairy tales, and Jungian theory, Puck crafts dreamlike sculptures that invite viewers into a world where the lines between the familiar and the foreign blur.
Puck’s artistic style is characterized by large-scale, soft, and tactile sculptures that evoke a sense of wonder and discomfort simultaneously. His use of pastel colors and exaggerated forms creates an aesthetic that is both inviting and eerie. The materials he employs—primarily wool—allow for intricate textures and fluid shapes, enhancing the surreal quality of his work. Through these sculptures, Puck delves into themes of transformation and the uncanny, challenging perceptions of beauty and identity.
Throughout his career, Puck has exhibited his work in various prestigious venues across the United States and Europe. His exhibitions include Nucleus Portland in Oregon, Samek Art Museum in Pennsylvania, Jonathan Levine Gallery in New York, and the Royal Scottish Academy in Edinburgh. His work has garnered attention in prominent publications such as Juxtapoz Magazine, Hi-Fructose, and Colossal. In recent years, Puck has introduced the imaginative world of Fliffmellington through his creations, further expanding his artistic universe. His innovative approach continues to captivate audiences, solidifying his place in the contemporary art scene.
