I am concerned with communicating a sense of harmony, balance, order
and spirituality.
We are all confronted on a daily basis with the fragmentation of our
non-linear lives, trying, as in a puzzle, to make the pieces fit
together to make sense of it all.
My paintings, works on paper, and sculpture depict imagery of
personal events and psychological issues. They are expressed through
geometric shapes, color, light, space, texture, edges and movement
each interplaying with one another engaging the viewer to
participate.
Most recently, I have embarked on a series of white paintings that
abandon my signature bold palette. These paintings, from the
"Elements of Peace" series, pay homage to people who have been
affected by war. White is soft, quiet, spiritual, unadorned and full
of infinite possibilities. My intention is to create an
architectural space for rest, retreat, connection, reflection and
identification.
The multi-dimensionality and multi-layering of my work reference
what one must uncover to penetrate the illusions of reality and
reach the mystery and essence of the soul. |
