Artist Statement

My paintings are informed by my experience of social landscapes. The tension and ambiguity of the unspoken inspire my synthetic paintings. I primarily utilize wood as a substrate and oil as a medium. I incorporate imagined structures with nameable objects. I begin with structural lines, which slowly become patterns. Afterwards, I overlay color and begin emphasizing and muting elements, bringing in observed shapes and contrasts, responding to the painting as its own entity. Often, a painting goes through several iterations before it is done. When I am not painting, I am meditating on the increasingly uncomfortable and strange social world I find myself in. Aware that many people around me, myself included, are living in our own alternate realities, aided by modern technology. Our lived experience is no longer defined by a shared consensus of reality. My paintings reflect that imperceptibility and the loss of a discernible truth.
