Interesting and provocative work.
The cast soap pieces are wonderful, surprising. I agree with Terry...the work is thought-provoking and intriguing...
Thanks for commenting, Terry and Pam. Yes, Miles' work is interesting and provocative. He is also one of the world's greatest teachers. He helped me to assess my work and career like no one else was able to. He's a great guy!
