My practice concerns complexity, underlying order, and emerging connections within a structure. I am intrigued by complex, interconnected shapes, whether in unusual architecture, tiny seed pods, or mathematical geometry. In my abstract mixed-media works, I utilize the alternative photographic process of cyanotype. I have long been fascinated by light, with its manifold representations and appearances in religions, optics, and theoretical physics. I found the cyanotype process a very apt starting point for my work because light plays a central role in creating the image. My cyanotypes are made from her well-defined designs; however, the cyanotype process invariably allows unforeseen marks to appear in the resulting image. I cherish and build on these blemishes, striving to “solve” the picture as I layer paint and resin. I studied physics and mathematics in my early years, and I often use scientific forms as a starting point for my paintings. My overarching interest is in the concept of light. The titles of my work refer to the coding systems of online platforms. The seemingly random word combinations evoke a sense of atmosphere and musicality.
