Artist Statement
I see my work today in terms of a visual record or diary of my life. The form of this diary varies. At times it assumes the form of an installation or performance. Other times I create art out of ordinary things such as eggshells and feathers. Still others, my art assumes the form of traditional painting. The medium matters not. I use whatever means necessary to give the piece the form it needs in order to convey my idea. The subject matter of my work is both personal and universal. I examine the nature of being, of my own individual being, and of eternal beingness. I am fascinated by recent discoveries in quantum physics as well as other related fields of study including human psychology, eastern mysticism and human spirituality. Through my art, I explore these ideas in relation to my own individual self as well as my larger, all-encompassing Self. Art making is a process of self-inquiry and self-definition. In the end, I am what quantum physicists refer to as being both the observer and the observed. I am the creator as well as the creation of my artistic undertaking. |
