My work revolves around the relationship between seeing and knowing.
I see the artist studio as a laboratory to explore how visual ideas generate meaning, with particular focus on the relationship between painting and photography. In this relationship I am compelled by photography’s ability to document, witness and construct visual meaning, and painting’s ability to reflect an accretion of experiences, time, and the human touch. My project explores the space between these media, and the relationship between primary experience and the virtual representation of those experiences.
