I propose a landscape populated with all the pleasures and fears of the collective mind. In the forefront of our concerns exists this undeniable fact that there is a transparency and dislocation in our sense of place. My intention is to reflect the questions of this shaky ground of the time. I want to impart a shift in perception where transformation can happen in a fleeting moment.

I would like to invest some uninterrupted time to developing a new vocabulary of imagery, possibly even to break away from a two dimensional support and experiment with a sculptural trajectory. This will be an ambitious proposition but I sense myself fruitfully following through an experimentation I started when I had the opportunity to be in a seven month residency at the Fine Arts Work Center.
