As an artist I am concerned with articulating moments of trauma, pain, memory, and emotion that either resist language or disintegrate through miscommunication.  Pulling from my own personal archive of events and experiences the work is both abstract and specific, drawing from items we all encounter and have relationships with; docks, architecture, support structures, notions of stability and balance, medicine and medical equipment, nature, and furniture.  The work communicates by pulling the viewer into an empathetic relationship through scale and common reference points.  Often quiet and with dark or foreboding undertones, the work is both aggressive and dreamlike.
