A meditation on violence and vulnerability. At the top of this piece is a crosshairs/reticle like one would find in a sight on a rifle. The purpose here is to focus, aim, meditate, and mitigate damage to the self and others—to locate the trigger, the original glitch, and bring it to the light—to either heal or dry up and become dust. There is chaos in the background, while floating, translucent shapes attempt to contain, manage and organize the disorder. On the left side of the canvas the shapes are more opaque, grounded, and heavy—capable of being wielded as weaponry for self-defense, if necessary. Subtle patterns throughout suggest the power of mantra/repetition and the role of recurring thoughts and actions that are either life-affirming or the opposite. The overall arrangement makes a loose head piece that would help the wearer to focus and channel the mind. The circle centers, when connected make lines, angles and prisms with the purpose to calm, hold, and transform.

My paintings include hints of two-dimensional icons, stained glass windows, ceremonial objects, carnivalesque paraphernalia, dressmaker pattern pieces, and carefully designed altars. I see the work as functional and as such it may resemble a strange alchemical device, a crude vessel, a protective figure, a fortune teller, a shamanic robe, an asymmetrical mandala…all of which shepherd the process of transformation. I am inspired by the decadence of Art Deco; the hope and efficiency of Mid-Century aesthetics; the joining of texture, light and comfort in interior design; the riotous maximalism in haute couture; the rawness of tribal mark making; and the implied doorway to the unseen in esoteric symbology. All of these influences are cradled in deep investigations into color, particularly its role as a visual phenomenon and catalyst for sparking feeling and narrative. My work is collected worldwide and featured in collections and collaborations in Denver, Seattle, New York City, Macau, Hong Kong, Singapore, Nanjing, Dubai, Edinburgh, and Amsterdam among other places.
