The work is based on nature and the memory of experience. Within the lexicon, figuration, observed and imagined, moves iand dissolves. The continuum of time, movement, and space deny visual and physical “reality” as well as one’s “place” in such a reality. Ambiguity is vital to the language.
Figuration and abstraction are in tandem. Visages are mediated by emergent form, space, and contradiction. The notion of picture plane is both affirmed by surface, mark and denied by implication. Disjointed elements and superimpositions produce dislocations from the “normative.” Working from memory of experience and art historical references, the dialogue of physicality and spirt persists.
The work exists in pursuit of ambiguos location and figuration; erosion and transfiguration; concurrent loss and reaffirmation of identity and time.
