Statement of the Art
My work for the past 25 years has become a study of light and the mysterious aspects of nature as well as the impact we humans have on it. The work is an inquiry into nature and embellishing the unusual aspects of the trees and the skies as well as situational aspects that ascertain or attempt to communicate an awareness. I find myself continually returning to nature as a source of inspiration and experimentation as I feel there is so much to learn from it. Painting offers a means to give me the freedom to explore textures and color combinations. My installations offer me a chance to research human interaction and experience in conjunction with narratives and play which can help to develop a more meaningful work. My creative building projects such as 'Seraphim' offer an opportunity to experiment with unconventional building methods.
My latest painting "Return to Innocence" is reminiscent of determination in childhood. It also reveals our independence and the need to explore. This is also indicative of my own experimentations to find the simplicity of a busy life and the curious explorations of childhood in the seemingly seriousness of adult years. This and my previous works, "Spring in Time" and "The Dreaming Tree" have been the first into a series that leans to a surrealistic side of expression. The distortions, disproportions, and pressured perspectives allow me to create a more dynamic view into the message that is being communicated.
My installations for the most part were created through a conglomeration of ideas from a group of students, though the latest "Seraphim" was an independant work that set out to convey my strong protest of inhumanity to cetaceans. This work pushed me into the investigation of protest art and art activism. Conveying a message through the performance gave me the ability to emphasize a controversial issue that hoped to bring an awareness to it.
My work is experimental in nature and much of the subject matter is researched to an extent as a helpful insight into its features. Through experimentation I also learn the aspects of control. A picture tells a thousand words. There are just as many ways to describe a work as there are to convey an idea. For thousands of years artists have been creating works as a record of experience or as a method of telling a story. A work of art can change a person's perception to a once unperceived thought. We hope that art can achieve that or at least help to open minds to a different point of view.
My use of materials are traditional for the most part, although I rely on an open mind in order to create fearlessly. I keep my eyes open to new ways of expression through different degrees of provocation. My work attempts to distort and twist specific features in order to offer a different perspective into the world. I sincerely hope you find my work interesting and enjoyable.
