I think of my work as unfinished inventories of fragmented
ideas expressed as objects and lines. They are improvisational sites in which the constructed and the ready-made are used to question our making of the world through vision in the language of knowledge.
My arrangements are schematic, inviting the viewer to move into a space of speculation in space and time. I rely on our desires for beauty, poetics and seduction.
The work thus far has used the frame of the museum idea to
propose a secret of modernity, and in the process,
I point to stereotypes of difference, in which are hidden in plain sight.
I have found the histories of surrealism and minimalism to be useful in the rearranging of received ideas. The paintings I make are placed in modernist art, in hopes of making visible what is overlooked in the historicism of the art.
