Artist's Statement:
I have worked in a variety of genres and disciplines during by career including:
1- PAINTING (acrylic on canvas, watercolor on paper, oil on canvas and wood panel, acrylic and oil on primed paper, gouache on paper; mixed media on canvas);
2- PRINTMAKING (mixed technique etching, serigraph, monoprinting, woodblock, linolium block, new technologies);
3- INSTALLATION (indoor environments/conceptual spaces; outdoor earthworks; mixed media);
4- MIXED-MEDIA ASSEMBLAGE (all media);
5- PHOTOGRAPHY (Black-and-white, silverprint, color, digital)
6- PAPER WORKS & FIBER ARTS (Hand-made papers, drawing in traditional and experimental techniques, bookarts); and,
7- SCULPTURE (wood, plaster casting, found objects altered, glass, clay, metal, stone, bone).
I also experiment with the mixing of traditional and new technologies, as well as the integration of text, poetry, performance, film/video, and public/conceptual art with the above genres.
My art speaks with elements such as: color; light; form; geometry; physics; space; poetics; line; the manipulation of the aforementioned; emotional content; and, the recycling of ideas/myths/concepts.
My work is a prayer attached to the human yearning for knowledge. I am a story teller in the Realm of Image; My works exist to take you into your exact present . . . your own cathedral of sacred mountains . . . your moment of immediate self-recognition. Oh, you gentle and mad Sparks of a Trillion Dieties . . . you Flame of One Tongue . . . you who are learning how to speak and rest in Divinity's never-ending sound of exploding quiet . . . appreciate the fact that you can change the universe with thought, for you know more than you believe you do!
