Impermanence, change, control and lack thereof. The layers of information I create in my prints and paintings examine the discussion between control and chaos. By juxtaposing grids and harsh lines with the natural tendencies of my materials, I attempt to examine the relationship between the order we seek and the spontaneity that is inherent in nature. The constant application and erosion of image touches on the fleeting qualities of history and time by linking future opportunities with past occurrences. The endless joining of lines and shapes, as well as the layering of color and texture further suggests the idea of connectivity. By merging together all of these ideas I hope to create work that forces the viewer to detach themselves from their material world and get lost in the wavering layers of line and texture.
