“I am a multi-disciplinary artist working in painting, ceramics and public art. I create visually complex, labyrinthine compositions of interlocking abstract forms inspired by the serendipitous shapes of scraps, artifacts and alphabetic glyphs. Using a piecework approach, I create each unique shape separately. This modular process privileges the exploratory flow of improvisation over planning and allows me to enter into a spontaneous dialog with the materials and tools I use. Even after the compositions are finalized they continue to suggest the possibility of movement, playfully asserting the sense that if anything were to shift position every other element would be impacted. This dynamic interplay between the objects reflects my interest in exploring the theme of the relative and interconnected nature of life.”
