Paintings
Taking inspiration from both the inexhaustible and inexact patterns of variation and repetition in nature, and the straight lines and right angles of architecture. Taking inspiration from all color, in both its tangible natural material expressions as well as mercurial emotional reverberations. The work flattens and layers the complexities of the world around it, seeking to capture its tensions within lines of demarcation and fibers of paper. The result is direct, forceful and vibrant. In groupings and assemblies, the pieces compel the gaze from one piece to another, and from one self-similar element within each piece to another, seeking and finding coherence and difference; discovering connections; slowing into an acknowledgment of each piece’s singular declaration within a relational and collective intelligence.
