ARTIST STATEMENT

Abstract, conceptual, free-flowing, organic and cerebral, I am known for attempting new things- taking disparate elements and bringing them together. Given the current social-political climate, it has become increasingly important to create work that bridges the gaps across different perspectives and facilitate relational dialogue. I create engaging art that explores spontaneity, imperfection and chance. This evolving process is in line with my philosophical, ethical and imaginative goals. My goal is to transform a space into an energized environment that transports the viewer (participant) from the unfocused everyday gaze into a dimension of discovery. My installations are three dimensional drawings, using linear materials, such as fencing and wire to define space and form. The ephemeral quality of each construction reminds the viewer of the temporary nature of their own life and condition.
