My work is a hybrid combining painting, sculpture,
and installation that uses color and light to explore
the act of seeing itself. Each piece is an interaction
between color as pigment and color as light, often
conflating the two in spatially ambiguous ways.
Drawing on the vocabulary of geometric abstraction,
and deploying reflected color from unseen fluorescent
paint, I orchestrate optical experiences in which color
is vividly present yet almost immaterial.
These constructions exist in the gap between painting
and object. Subtle manipulation of color relationships
between various planes in space causes an optical
disorientation, which raises questions about the
discrepancy between what we see and what we know.
Part of the meaning of my current work resides in the
tension created between maximum optical energy
and minimal physical materiality.
