Artist Statement:
"Nearly everyday I am
confronted by an internal
struggle- a tension in my
human experience between my
intellect and my emotions: a
wildness coming through all of
the pretty and big words in
competition with and also in
collaboration with a
sophisticated presentation. An
internal struggle, sometimes
feeling that of mammoth
proportions. This duality of
my experience leads to a
split- one part of me wants to
paint a pretty picture, while
the other wants to paint from
the gut, the pain, the massive
build-up of emotions. Never
sated, never satisfied.
As an artist, an opportunity
exists to mould these two
experiences together in one
cohesive statement, both the
primitive feelings, and the
advanced intellect. This task
alone is daunting, blending
primitive and modern verses
structured and grounded in
contemporary theory. Materials
present their limits. Paper
too thin, canvas is not
enough, wax, clay, board,
emotion, size. It all matters,
and none of it matters at
all."
