Artist Statement
I like to subvert my own
work. I investigate how
shapes and colors interact and
disrupt the overall work by
becoming anomalies that don’t
quite make sense or distract
from the assumed narrative.
The shapes and rendered forms
in my work seem as though they
exist in three-dimensional
space, but their functions and
actions appear ambiguous. The
“anomalies” are specific
symbols (like arrows or
hearts), but they lead to
nothing specific, or have no
discernable logic to their
existence. The narratives
alluded to in the work then
become bizarre and disjointed,
and elicit a range of possible
interpretations. Confusion and
ambiguity are interesting to
me. I am interested in
unfinished stories, lost
contextual information, and
nonsensical interpretation.
People in general strive to
make sense of irrational
things, and attempt to make
order out of chaos. Some
things, however, have no
logic. There can be fun in
exploiting that need for
order, as well as a mysterious
quality that can be very
attractive.
