ARTIST STATEMENT

My work is about surface and what lies under, fully revealed, or semi-obscured, and how hidden moments never fully disappear. Series have been themed around Debussy’s music, imaginary trips through Asia, or an invented dialogue with Impressionist painters, but they are always about the place where imagination and emotion are snagged by mystery.
