After becoming interested in an observation or idea, I feel an overwhelming desire to explore, describe and share it. Subjects range from the improbable juxtaposition of things that I happen upon, to concepts that I find particularly interesting. The process of translation into imagery enhances my experience and distills information from whichever image or idea has captured my attention.

Context is the primary mechanism that I use to filter my perceptions. Relationships between a subject and its viewer, or between an object and its environment, create a contextual reference that orders and defines the way something is understood. Seemingly concrete concepts like east compared to west, up and down, or in front of and behind, become fluid depending upon the position of the observer in relation to direction.

People define and are defined by their experiences. In my art practice I use sculpture, two-dimensional media and performance to explore the interrelationships between forms and their implied observer in order to share that experience. My perspective in the observation and creation process inevitably becomes part of the art produced. This implied reference, manifested in the work, engages the viewer as part of the context, while they experience the art.
