The work surfaces through a primal lens of elemental relationships between space and being, land and body, the seen and unseen forces within nature.
A wonder in the mystery of these relationships, forges the forms,imagery and atmosphere which frequently surface through their own suggestion or volition. A kind of esoteric alchemy rooted in the interest of natural and subnatural occurrences, essences of life and death cycles, colonies of incidence.
I employ restrained combined uses of various mixed mediums, solid and liquid, on a variety of grounds, in an attempt to evoke a visceral response to one's own experience of nature and consciousness.
