My newer 3-D studies of illusion embrace perspectives that seem to move as the viewer moves. In these pieces I am incorporating elements of light and shadow; the sense of spatial relationships created by horizon line, vertical line, foreground, background, and their relative importance, is the foundation for many of my pieces.
My work is autobiographical, everything I make reflects small disjointed parts of me; my life experiences, my moral values and beliefs, my ideas of control and power. I am influenced by the science of nature and the creations of mankind, precision and absurdity, destruction and regeneration.
I use various mediums and materials, continually experimenting and challenging myself in both the expression of my universe as well as the creation of the piece. Many of the motifs are commonly recognized and identified, however they symbolize very specific meanings for me. Circles portray cycles and infinite possibility; eyeballs represent recognition and memory; teardrops depict liberation; hands illustrate internal conflict and a desire for change.
I want the viewer to spend time really seeing that which is hidden and appreciate the search. I present an opportunity for you to decide which areas hold mass, volume, or space. The significance the shapes take can instigate memory or provide insight.
Once I capture an image, I will re-work it to slowly develop a new sense of what the piece means to me. I create to understand myself.
