Unseen
My work stems from a long-held fascination with the body’s subterrain. The works are biopsies, capturing a state or moment. Ambiguous organic structures allude to ultrasound imagery, which makes it possible to view the intimate interior of the body detached from its visceral reality. I am interested in the parallels that exist between the investigative technology, language and imagery of microbiology and other sciences. Fluid paint explores the interaction of chance and intent. I am immersed in the primal human practice of mark making, a physical and intuitive building and obliteration of form.
