Artist Statement

 The things I paint are things that I’ve encountered and would like to experience again––in my hands and in my body so that I can be carried in it. I want to get inside of it. For it to usurp me and this very room that I am in. Not to be told something––to impart information or knowledge––but to get rid of something. I’d like to abandon myself and plunge into it.
