It is in the moment of shifting where my work takes form—each manifestation of the brush
influencing the transition of the next. I suggest form, impose line, and weave dimension in order to extract from the process what is initially unknown. Speculating on this abstract reasoning, my imagery constitutes an active force that morphs into states of continual change. Thus I process color as an unwinding, and simultaneously as a form of visual compression. The pursuit for movement through form, color, and shape are my tools for
conjuring the physical, exploring the communication and frequencies of a mindscape that defies order. What drives me to complete these explorations lies in unpredictability—is it possible for an image to transcend beyond its operation of aesthetics?
