Artist Statement
The work is a chronicle of public spaces. The environments are initially experienced and captured photographically, then edited and reworked. The pattern and color, although deviating from the original image, simplify and reduce description of the space, which endures as a record of human experience, emphasizing notions of fate, the sublime, isolation, dream, memory, vision, and history.
