Artist Statement
My work considers the increasing levels of entropy in the world. The paintings refer to signs along the way, in various sites, connected by air and water. These indices point to a time and place in which the distant past, our current, and a rapidly advancing future will meet. These signs are monuments to a future in which they will no longer exist, monuments to futures that may not exist.
