    Concurrent with my voyage through time and geography, my work explores time through unexpected passages. The forms and reference of my work are of architectural structures and organic materials with primal approaches, an intuitive dynamic informed by the materials and transcending its’ history to new forms. My work is deeply referential, structures we create and discard, offer a mixing of hidden narrative and exposed layers, examining ongoing cycles of cohesion and disintegration. My large-scale drawings and collages use maps and found images, and architectural structures whose scale and perspective is distorted or exaggerated. Art historian and critic Robert C. Morgan has written, “…structure signifies an inventory of shapes and elements that pull together even as they move in different directions…” The archetypal images and forms of my work function as a repository of individual and collective moments, forming a visceral bridge to a blending of time-frames, real and imagined.

    I create drawings and paintings, collages and installations, and public art projects, including murals. My work explores human experiences of place and landscape—including the colors, patterns, light, shapes, and shadows found across the natural world and the built environment—telling stories about people and the spaces they inhabit (or dream of). I use source materials about places and spaces to generate a visual language of color, line, shape, and form, combining and digitally tracing elements before etching or cutting the resulting images into paper, acrylic, wood, and other materials–or using those pieces as stencils for paintings. Each material is thus a building block combined and layered with others to create vibrant multi-dimensional works. Ultimately, my work emerges from the landscape and the built environment; the lives and memories of the people who move within such spaces; and the patterns and imprints we leave upon and learn from the world around us.

    Apart from making shows in exhibition-spaces, I love to go outside and work with an external spot. I let my work play its role within, and interact with this larger environment. I enjoy considering how to relate to the people who use the space in their daily lives and routines. I love to work in a situation where people will unexpectedly come upon my intervention in their surroundings. I seek to elicit a moment of awareness in the flood of anonymity. We mostly go through life in an automatic-pilot state of mind. I would love to have the artwork see the environment with a fresh look for just a second, before going back to the automatic pilot. I would love to have my artwork given a few thoughts someone may pick up. And with that, inspire the passer-by for a moment to think outside the box of our day to day routine mindset, before she/he rushed back into life. I wish to design a work that gives a symbol to the space, to the building and/or the area.
