Artist Statement

I think of myself as a 'constructivist' - someone who puts things together. Although the mediums I've used over the years have changed, many of the themes are similar, such as: 

  • Density: a rich integrated whole formed from distinct building blocks
  • A sense of optimism and playfulness
  • Being prolific and the joy, passion and obsession found in productivity
  • Imperfection: sometimes deliberate, sometimes not
  • Relationships and the connections that bring us together and pull us apart
  • Abstraction: answers through analysis and reflection and still more questions and images; never a complete story
  • Provocation: hopefully in good ways
