“The medium is as unimportant as I myself. Essential is only the forming...I take any material whatsoever if the picture demands it. ...I play off material against material, wood against sack clothes.”
Identity and transformation seems to me to be a matter of historical accumulation and time specific context. I, in truth, make artwork with the expectation of re-considering my own psycho-spiritual experiences.
Process is exceedingly important to me because I see art as a sort of making performance. For me, the final presentation turns out to be a visual document of that art experience. I have no nitpickiness (is that really a word?) about materials or methods. I welcome my almost involuntary use of color as a form of my own subconscious expression. As I transform, so my work does.
In my installations I use painting, sculptural elements, assemblage and videos to craft immersive art experiences. I also make books and do communal projects that include mail art, social media events and pop-up stations.
