Artist Statement:
In my artwork, I am
interested in expressing what
I can't express easily in
words. When I was younger, I
was very interested in poetry
and I feel that my interest in
the visual arts comes from the
same source, involving the
construction of a kind of
visual poem. Much of my work
process is intuitive, or
possesses intuitive elements
within a rational framework.
I am most interested in
conveying a sense of energy,
emotion, or an idea, through a
form that may also have a
planned and methodical basis.
Multi-Group (Grass) and
(Sand), grew out of the desire
to convey the sense of
something being born or
emerging from something
protective. In this series, a
smaller element gradually
emerges from a larger form,
protruding out of a womb-like
or protective surrounding.
These pieces could also
represent a kind of
regeneration or growth from
one form to another, or
something sprouting in nature.
Recently, I finished
a series inspired by real and
imaginary pods and plants.
These works show the intricate
morphology of organic forms.
The pieces in the series are
based on a fuzzy Australian
plant with external fin-like
seed pods (Banksia Grandiflora
II), flower...
