Artist Statement:
I recently realized that my
work can be best described not
by what I seek in the final
product, but by what I don't
seek. Each work is in itself
an experiment.
In the past, I have avoided
subtlety. My older works have
tried to offer my opinions on
aspects of society that were
not commonly addressed by
visual art. I wanted my
audience to be struck first by
the image, and then to slowly
realize the basic ideas of
what I had depicted.
In recent years, I've begun to
shun realism. I strive to
avoid finished themes,
focusing not on my subject,
but on its interaction within
itself.. the better to force
my audience to apply their own
sense of aesthetics to my
work.
Feminine forms (and trees,
which I also consider
feminine) lend themselves
quite well to
reinterpretation. I like to
break the original form, most
often by use of artificial
negative space, in order to
reconstruct the image. The
final product must
successfully reflect the
original emotion and intent of
the form.
