My recent paintings are concerned with geometric abstraction,
decoration, repetition, and their intersection with representations
of nature and natural forms. They contain collisions of color,
pattern, and form that move over and against themselves.
These cut-canvas, layered paintings are textured with inlaid
symbols, with multiple layers of surface coming together to
simultaneously form and disrupt the image. The work explores
utopian ideals of beauty and structure converging with the chaos
of chance and process.
