Artist Statement
My work is instinctual in its origins and process oriented; a build up and disintegration of thought rendered through mark making. I reference abstract worlds comprised of units functioning on both a micro and macro level simultaneously, reducing form down to the most simplistic unit and then reconstructing form through multiplicity. I am interested in defining space both within and beyond the two-dimensional plane, applying subtle destruction in the form of pinpricks to the paper. I strive to achieve an integration of light as an element of play, as well as an overarching sense of purity allowing for freedom of thought and expansion.
