As an artist, I am interested in systems, specifically time and its relationship to the body,
movement and the mundane. My work investigates movement of the body through time. We live
within a world of systems where time is a system of relations. One event follows another from
past to present to future, each event interdependent on the other. Our lives are based around time.
I employ technical and biologic scenery as motifs to describe the expansion and movement of time as
it relates to the body and the everyday. I engage the viewer in my aesthetic of complex dialogues
that create a hyper-real narrative, suggestive of a shift in time.
The art movement that has most influenced my work is Pop Art. Like Pop Art my work engages the
viewer in a conversation with the common everydayness of that which surrounds us and expresses
itself in a systemic view of the world. In addition, I derive inspiration from artists outside the
Pop Art movement that use motion and light in their work such as Moholy-Nagy, Muybridge, Kertész
and Boccioini.
My choice of mediums does not define me. I consider myself an artist, not a photographer, painter
or printmaker. My work defines the medium in which it will be created.
