ARTISTS STATEMENT

I make paintings with Acrylics and dry pigments, articulating the beauty of the unknown through compositions guided by our awareness of the shape of the universe.   The larger works are typically the width of my wingspan; their height is scaled to the golden ratio.  Compositional geometry, whether sacred, mathematical, or both, operates as the fingerprint of consciousness underlying enormous spacetime phenomena.  Taking another path to the same result, the paperwork is generated as business-casual documents, 8.5 x 11” and larger, interrogating our observational and cosmological declarations.  In reading, drawing, writing, sculpting, and drafting digital models— I work through the veils of perception, quantum mechanics, and the shape and nature of reality.  I treat the messages of this genius as the light of god, a steady stream of dualistic waves and photons that have projected a survey of comparative religions, intelligences, and intuitions that are consistently updating similar messages for us, in hopes that we are learning and edifying our present state of existence.

It is as funny and dry as the pigments on the work as they arrived at the gallery.  

I find theology and science fiction to present the same grand puzzle, and if this is a simulated universe, can it be solved at any moment?  Do we have all of the tools and evidence needed?  While articulating the unknown, I seek to amplify the positive pathways and patterns permeating through competing, divergent discourses into elegant forms that point us towards utopic eventualities.
