Artist Statement
In a space that contains elements of our universe ranging
from cellular to cosmic, simple geometric shapes serve as characters or
markers.
The paintings often begin with a series of subconscious
gestural elements. These organic
elements come to interact with geometric lines and shapes and may transform
into games, systems of measurement or other organizational devices that can be
used to understand, explore, invent or entertain.
Perhaps the work will serve as a portal or object that
inspires meditation. Maybe it will be a catalyst for ideas and solutions to
various problems and dilemmas. I am engaged along with the viewer in searching
for metaphor and meaning within the formal structures of the work.
