Artist Statement
My imagery is derived from my efforts to reconcile the personal
experience of nature with a society that is digitally informed.
While distanced from a landscape sensibility, I pursue unexpected
explorations of natural subjects. A sense of discovery extends to
my examination of digitalism as both a medium of perception and
a reorganizing force. Relative orientation, rather than a universal
whole, reflects a new manner of organizing digital structures and
the systems they represent. Under this weight, all factors of the
environment and experience coexist in a state of active interplay.
As part of this art practice I examine my cultural identity and its
relation to both nature and technology. By deconstructing these
relationships, I create new avenues I use to enter and navigate
their associated signifiers. In this state, networks of interweaving
systems unravel. The resulting vantage point offers new
perspectives from which to experience contemporary culture.
