2004, Masonite, 14"w x 14"h x 3"d

I would like to make work that elevates the mind and the heart above the quotidian. Although there is nothing wrong with everyday life and events as subjects, I want my art to be concerned with eternal questions such as what is the nature of the cosmos and how we understand it? If it began with the big bang, what forces were at work to create symmetry, regularity and consistency? I am drawn to structure when I think about these questions and enjoy building webs, lattices, and grids that float in space. They are personal labyrinths and I see them as networks of possibilities.
