ARTIST STATEMENT

My work is about counterpointing a word, a thought or a material, in order to visualize an idea. This becomes the core of how I execute that idea, and materials are selected that satisfy the visual requirements. I use any combination of mediums, (bronze, Belgian linen, acrylics, corrugated steel, photography, realism, wood, barbed wire, granite etc.

The juxtaposition elicits the play of strong opposites, and the thinking ranges from the ironic to the controversial, amusing, political, sexual and diversified.
