My work explores the visual and scientific constants of bodies, systems, and complex structures. I utilize my own life experience to move others and expose the subtle beauty behind our physical fragility. Through materials I investigate the underlying unity that exists amidst the fundamental properties of nature. I use organic materials and technology to manifest the unseen realms of the internal body and the expanses of space, and to illustrate the interconnected nature of such seemingly disparate proportions.
I find connections to the body in the materials that I use viscerally and visually. The current inkjet work I am engaged with compounds the discoveries and technological advancements made from the Renaissance forth through subject and process. I utilize said advancements effects on intellectual and technological modes of processing and organizing information, and employ these devices and resources to create my work. This process allows me to access the unknowable in a language I can use to confront existence, bodies, origins, and how the altering of scientific images and abstraction reveal and reinterpret those.
Through a process of alchemy I create plastic abstractions. My work unifies the visual and scientific constants of human and celestial bodies and the complex systems that they share. I use organic materials and modern technology to materialize the unseen realms of the internal body and the vastness of the Universe, and to illustrate the interconnected nature and commonality of such seemingly different realms. I employ the computer, found images, acetate, ink, and a printer to create a means of communicating the emotions of my own unique experience with my viewers. With said materials I delve into the multi-vectored configurations of space, relating quantum particles to microbiology and cosmology.
I provoke paint and inks physical potentials, wielding them into visceral, fluid states, allowing the natural force of gravity to influence their movement. I create work that can at one angle be read as bundles of nerves, veins, and pools of fluids, yet synonymously can be interpreted as gaseous formations and galactic expanses.
