Artist Statement:
My work explores identity issues, chance as an element in art and the Dada concept of collage, but on a digital level based on my photography, digital painting and “found imagery”. I consider digital collage as the alchemy of our day. We take base metal in the form of images with one meaning, and then by adding or subtracting data we create something with new meanings, sometimes readily apparent other times not. In some of my work I weave in portions of images of myself which further implicate my view of the world. I have a tendency to gravitate toward strong colors which fuel the emotions behind the worlds I create in art.
Currently I am working on a series entitled “Power: Lines & Shapes” which will form the basis for a one-woman show this coming January. The work consists of large scale lambda prints of photographs of power lines and transformers blended digitally to focus on how ordinary elements can become something else and also a study in shape, color and mass. I’ve always been fascinated by the machinery of electricity upon which I depend so much for my art.
