Artist Statement

Gravity and Demarcations: the work for this show began during a time of transition something strange and loose had taken over my spirit. There were days when I felt that at any given time my body…was harboring a phantom and now it slowly creeps into the mind and leaves behind footprints and tattoos….

Mummy: The most beautiful way to stage a portrait or paraesthesia---these are the days when I do not feel real…

                                    Amazing things: why not?                                    

Dust:
        Perhaps
                just as
                       overwhelming
                                as water
