Description

ā??The experience of being, the spiritual moment which takes place when one stops feeling used to day-to-day reality...that can be the moment of creation.ā? -Sandra Lapage A deep-rooted disconnect. A discontentedness. A stumble, a fall. An epiphany. Another. This plane of existence is rather boring, isnā??t it? I will show you mine. No, this isnā??t an escapist fantasy. Some sneer upon my happiness? I canā??t hear them. Iā??m too busy flitting among my void.

Artist Statement:

My deep-rooted disconnect and discontentedness with this plane of existence has caused me quite a bit of grief. I stumbled, I fell. My artwork wandered aimlessly with me. Then, I was bathed in the light of an epiphany and my paradigm shifted. I now make prints in varied editions and artistā€™s books illustrating my abstract universe, often combining silkscreen flat colors with copper plate etchings of line work.
Portals to my universe manifest in the form of my artwork. The depth of my never-ending tale unfurls with each printed layer and each fusion of the mechanic with the organic. My hope is for my solace-seeking kindred spirits to visit my world, feel less alone, and help me do the same--if only for a short while.
