Statement
My work is drawn from the painstaking scrutiny of models I create from cheap objects, fabrics, wood, etc. I find lying around in my studio. Often, brightly colored abstract shapes, patterns, and words represent the chaos of relentless information bombarding our everyday lives. A cacophony of colors, shapes, and visual puns reflect my perceptions on our discordant world.
