The Light that is Always There is a series of work that is made of multiple horizontal drawings that connect to each other to form a single long work. Each drawing is made without intentionally thinking about how it connects to the others. The synchronicity of shapes weaving throughout the overall piece is the mystery of this work.
dissolve is a series of works on paper created over the course of five years. With an interest in entrophy and transformation, this series comes out of the ongoing practice of collecting rusty objects and the interaction of those objects through drawing and the two-dimensional plane.
