Summary/Artist Statement

Investigating past childhood and adolescent memories of my younger self playing in structures and imaginative states to transport somewhere else. I explore my relationship to industrial structures as tools of play that measure time and memory.

Artist Statement:

My paintings reflect an experimental and tactile attitude to the touch. Each work is extremely physical, using collage elements with a limited color palette, abstracted compositions through subtractive and additive painting methods, recalling to Tic Tac Toe games built within playgrounds, fences, and walls
