“The job of the artist is always to deepen the mystery.”
--Francis Bacon

Statement
My work is exploratory, a call and response: I am always reacting to what I see, hear, experience. In manipulating images, forms, and words to reflect back, I search for cultural context, symbol and myth. A reply to questions, spoken and unasked. The world we inhabit contains many layers, but also rotates continuously in rhythm with time and space. Our conscious awareness touches only a small point of this multidimensional web. I’m interested in the places between, the transitions, the stories we tell about how and where and why. I look for connections, mirrors, repetitions, gaps, contradictions, the interaction of opposites, the point where endings and beginnings meet. We live in context, not isolation, and my hope is that what I create becomes part of this network of connection.
