Statement

I believe that art best serves when the viewer is compelled to generate and speculate upon multiple meanings and possibilities. When art becomes didactic then discovery and new experiences become less possible for all involved. That being said, from a personal standpoint my work points to universal experiences. I use symbols shared by many times and cultures. At the core we are all still primal beings searching for transcendence from primal states. We want love and life and we are constantly distracted from that by loss and death. My current work reflects my confrontation with such subjects.
