Why I rock:
My work is about space and our relation to it. Although I use literal imagery, I am not interested in depiction; my art reflects the experience and awareness of place. I juxtapose oil and acrylic to create flatness and depth that simultaneously destruct and create space. Repetitive patterns often dominate the surface of the work, interacting with layers of paint. These layers play backwards and forwards between themselves in a constant dialogue involving physical perception and the illusions of memory. I carefully select imagery to act as part of this dichotomy, often elevating everyday stuff to an iconic status.
