Artist's Statement

I create conditions/experiments that I then follow with great curiosity.

It turns out that, for me, having an idea may be less important than being open to inquiry for its own sake.

This appears to involve listening, trusting that the present provides, and following the thread of what is observed.

The materials I experiment with include plaster, burlap, pigment, casein paint, encaustic, indoor-outdoor carpet, kitchen floor vinyl, and shower stall underlayment.

The active questions that continue to invite going into are qualities such as light and shadow, texture and relief, the primacy of gravity, and longing.
