Philosophy

Ted started his Art Box work in 1994. Prior to his Art Boxes, he had experimented with various art forms such as photography, drawing, sculpted walking sticks and more. The evolution of his artwork culminated in the Art Boxes, which became his passion.

Ted was all about being a provocateur and provoking new thought and interesting conversations with his artwork. Posing questions is perhaps the foundation of his thinking. As a scientist and observer of the world, he was always asking “why?” or “how can we?” as he walked through each day. Those questions no doubt fed into his creativity and success. In this gallery, each of his pieces leave you asking yourself a question about life and perhaps challenging your current views of the world.
