Artist Statement

My objective is a visual symbolism that allows me to depict the city as an idea. With this language I can turn my attention to aspects of reality as evocative memory. I am not interested in complete abstraction but in freeing elements from their functionality while maintaining the impact of that functionality. I don’t start out by attempting to make a statement about human conditions, but the memory I am trying to portray is a memory of human interactions. Despite my formalistic approach, it is formalism serving a concern to reveal the outer world as an aspect of humanity.
