Statement

 

In my current work, familiar objects find themselves rearranged into starkly iconic images riddled with ambivalence and ambiguity. I wish to make tangible broadly understood realities while also allowing for a wide range of personal interpretation. It is the unexpected combination of the extraordinary differences between these 3D items and 2D imagery that creates the psychological depth of the message and projects a vivid physical presence. I start with an abstract social / political / economic reality and from it create a profoundly ambiguous ‘object’—both clear and vague, confrontational, yet accessible. My desire is to tap into and energize dimensions beyond the physical thing.
