Thou still unravish’d bride of quietness, Thou foster-child of silence and slow time, Sylvan historian, who canst thus express A flowery tale more sweetly than our rhyme: What leaf-fring’d legend haunts about thy shape Of deities or mortals, or of both, In Tempe or the dales of Arcady? What men or gods are these? What maidens loth? What mad pursuit? What struggle to escape? What pipes and timbrels? What wild ecstasy? –John Keats Set around you small, good, perfect things, ye higher men. Their golden maturity healeth the heart. The perfect teacheth one to hope. –Friedrich Nietzsche This is a heavily textural, mixed-media collage on canvas incorporating photography, found objects, and acrylic paints on acid free cotton duck canvas.

I make thoughtful mixed-media works that mediate friction between narrative and materiality. Novelistic pastiche and intuitive abstract painting confront each other in a bricolage of photographs, paint, and found objects. From a trace discovered in a few abject elements at the beginning of my process, I interweave strata, adding and subtracting components strategically or intuitively to create a quirky grammar of intellect and wonder. While my development has been steadily nourished by great mixed-media artists of the past, including Kurt Schwitters, Robert Rauschenberg and the Kienholzes, I'm also inspired by contemporaries like Fred Tomaselli, Julian Schnabel and Barnaby Furnas. Due to a lifelong visual impairment, I have access to the Library of Congress audio collection; the books I listen to while painting frequently inform my work. I think of my pieces as contemporary equivalents to religious icons, memory gardens or totem poles; abstracted story-boards in which the gaze explores systems of interpretation and meaning in a shared situation with the artwork. My practice seizes the narrative debris of Spectacle - advertisements with their flattened affect, litter, hyper-real media images, plastic paint - and humanizes them in matrices of personal symbolism. I strive to push the narrative element as far as it can go in materiality and, beyond merely illustrating, signify stories infused with broad, universal themes and questions.
