Artist Statement

My work is informed by the nature of objects in a real and imagined space. I keep a personal thesaurus of weight, skin, fragrance, textures, form and physics, gathered over years of looking at the urban landscape. In my work, here and there trade places and boundaries are firm but overlapping, a conversation in different languages. In my view, the world is formed by a type of constructive entropy, in which everything is tending towards chaos, but freezes into occasional form. I throw an imagined object into the air and paint it as it lands, after the laws of physics have had their say. My visual vocabulary is built upon years of travel; journeys to places where material culture is expressed in vastly different ways. I has lived and worked in New York City since 1976 and maintain a studio in Greenpoint Brooklyn.
