I imagine these paintings as artifacts sent back from an unknown
future where the oppositional forces of the present moment—
dread and upheaval, resistance and perseverance—have unfurled
into an eerily familiar yet totally unrecognizable world.
The compositions accumulate from pieces of my own drawings
and photographs, through which I search for evocative forms, the
suggestion of figuration, and the feeling of mystery.
