Artist Statement:
I express in a poetic sense what I experience of the physical realm in different and diverging forms. I do this poetically on a spiritual and psychological level. Whether working in a represetational or abstract manner, my formost focus is on the transformation of light to a concrete form. The infulences the early 20th century kinetic artists including film makers and dancers can generally be seen in my work. I strive to take the artistic idoms they created to new levels in my artwork.
