He is deeply fascinated by historical textiles and fabrics and uses these materials to wrap and adorn the body.
"I fold in a chiaroscuro fashion- textiles that enter my life, this questing, beguiling my senses". "These fabrics will live upon the skin to enhance the shadow and be the illumination of the soul". "The lighting I will use, comes from within my being, from all the joy and the adversity my eyes have experienced". "This will be reflective of the bursts that startled the dark!". -Francis A Willey
