Artist Statement
Each piece captures an instant of human experience by visually delving into the complex of memories, emotions, reactions and physical states which erupt at various moments of existence. The sculpted canvases establish a fleeting psychological space in which the colors, shapes and patterns push, pull, pierce and bounce, seeking recognition, understanding, and relief. Their relationships continually define one another through their dynamic state of existence, while the resulting visual tension manifests itself as a solitary expression.
Difficult and complex memories are the foundation from which I begin my work. The vibrancy of my paintings make them hard to ignore, much like those experiences or issues we unsuccessfully try and bury. I bring these twisted and bent shapes to the surface of my work to show a path for them to exist in a beautiful way.
