My work speaks to a landscape where its components and their relationships to each other are re-imagined through notions of architecture, still life, and sculpture. Solidly informed by quite of bit of work in the field where shallow water systems held my gaze, these interpretations also reflect the visual calisthenics that I engage to appreciate nuance. These explorations have occurred across painting, print, drawing, and sculpture media which increasingly influence each other especially through intuitive shape-making, line, echo, and a notion of communication across the composition. For me, this approach coincides with how memory and dreaming work, where peripheral knowledge and direct experience collide with intuition, intention, and desire.
