About

Artist Statement:

My work is concerned with a dialogue between made and found spaces and forms, and their relationship to place, structure and organization. I use traditional methods of still life, studio practice, photography and paint to inform each object or painting, bringing to it a new history and diary of existence, and then proposing to forward that record to future, unknown contexts. These objects are therefore always in flux, whether made or found, and striving to stay in keeping with the initial impulse of authorship or purpose. The formation of objects and materials reveals a process of adding and subtracting on purpose or in err, in an attempt to balance or level ideas of beauty, form, representation, structure and narrative.
