These artworks are mostly photo-based and often incorporate mixed media to produce original prints. Through the different bodies of work, I search for new ways of seeing. My current method for approaching this new territory is inspired by perceived notions of how our brains interpret what we see. I am interested in visualizing the process of seeing as it happens. Unifying mixed media with photographs puts the resulting space on the cusp of several moments of vision.

My art is interested in an underlying shared experience. When I decide to press the shutter-release button on the camera or put ink or paint down on a print, it's to make a record of a time and place that is open and uncertain. This is the groundwork from which I look to interpret the means of experience. As discoveries are made, patterns are formed, producing different bodies of work. Each work takes a different path toward new questions about looking, thinking, feeling, believing, knowing, time, space, nature, civilization and much more. In the making of art, it is not truth that I am hoping to comprehend, but the way in which we search for truth, intending to grasp this human tendency and yearning to understand our experiences, which are infinite.
