Statement

These works are composed of two series. The first, “Noise,” stems from my experience as a child with learning disabilities, where words on a page felt like chaotic noise. That struggle inspired the series, which explores the complexity of existence, where sound gives way to something deeper. Each piece reflects the intricate dance of particles that form everything, reminding us that what we perceive is just the surface, inviting us to embrace the beauty of the incomprehensible.

The second, “Stream of Consciousness,” focuses on process. I begin without a plan, allowing the work to unfold naturally, like digging for something unknown but recognizable when found. Each painting leads to the next, guiding me through new techniques or unresolved ideas. I embrace creation as an act of self-indulgence, rejecting perfection and making spontaneous decisions. While the world pursues relentless challenge, isn’t there beauty in the effortless flow of one’s essence? True mastery may lie in embracing that, rather than chasing artifice.
