In a world constantly in flux, how do we know, perceive, and become?

I am intrigued by the way that diverse times, places, and modes of organizing experiences are gathered into a single object, idea, or person to form an often-tenuous aggregate.

In my sculptural paintings neither color nor shape constitute a stable, preexisting ground. They emerge concurrently in an intuitive and iterative process where I fold, paint, layer, cut, and bind pieces of paper in an unset sequence. The intrinsic movement of color, as if in a dream of Houdini, finds an opening outward.

The works float in a glow of color reflected on the wall from the painted reverse side. Paradoxically, this immaterial, changing light constitutes the ‘ground’ for the piece. The glow—best seen at the sides—shifts in differing conditions. Curling elements, flaps, and collaged patches reveal and obscure hidden colors; they simultaneously encourage multiple relationships and offer many ways to experience the work.

Colors flirt and go for walks. Sensations build, multiply, and flow.
