Artist Statement
My paintings walk carefully on a thin line between loving homage and biting critique. Through humorous shifts in subject matter and technique, sometimes subtle and sometimes outrageous, my work acts as an absurd but ardent investigation of modernist canons. Like a police interrogation between two friends, the work is complicated, contradictory, and multi-faceted; oscillating between hope and suspicion, denial and belief.
