Liminal Realities + Enigmatic Constructs (2023-2018)
The Liminal Realities + Enigmatic Constructs series was developed with a balanced approach of intuitive intention, and inspired by mythology, mysticism, pseudoscience and science. These paintings and works on paper infer phenomenological and metaphysical experience and also reflect my interest in conveying micro-macrocosmic forms and space, and altered states of perception.
This series began as a transision out of another series and a way to experiment with new narratives and concepts, as well as incorporate a new material-technical approach to my studio process. To me, these works have been objects of organized chaos and an effort to synthesize disparate components into an amalgamated whole. The heart of my studio practice has always been centered around a desire to create compelling images that engage and challenge. I work in generative series and incorporate pouring, stenciling and airbrushing techniques in order to inject chance and discovery. The work and the creative act itself reminds me of a maze-like ecosystem, each image an indelibly woven assemblage that exists in a fluid state of interpretation and perception and a reflection of that moment in time.
