Using materials associated with Light and Space and Finish Fetish movements of the ‘70s, my work seeks to extend the traditions and vocabulary of painting to include 3D transitions of form and flatness as ratios of absence and presence, space and objecthood. In place of brush strokes from mark making, my work uses pristine, single-surface undulations as figurative motifs of transcendence to explore and comment on relationships between simulation and authenticity, ubiquity and uniqueness, and reality and fantasy, toward notions of a contemporary sublime.

I work within the space between memory and the patterned landscape of popular culture. Emerging from a foggy haze of childhood memories, my work is a delicately woven fabric of images, associations, and stories, a reconstruction of faint memories filtered through the "cabin culture" aesthetic of my childhood home and the landscape of the Midwest. My work is a reconstruction of memory, and the awkward, often false, associations within. I investigate fictitious memories often substituted for actual experience.
