Norman makes works that are both physical and metaphysical. His works explore the elemental and cyclical synergies of nature. Materiality, pattern, scale and experience are key concerns within his practice. Norman makes sculpture, indoor and outdoor installations, drawings and works on paper, his methodology is one of experimentation and process with materials such as smoke, glass, steel and resin. He lives and works in New York City.
