– About the Artist

 

I am interested in our relationship with that which is intangible. The unique dialogue between ourselves and that which is absent. 

My work often takes the shape of syncretistic rituals or has a ritual-like process to it. My paintings, installations and performances are all repetitive and time consuming. When I work on them I enter a ritual, a personal ritual that is therapeutic in its limitations. A recurring material in my work is lacquer as I find comfort in its qualities. The adding and erasing process of lacquer adequately reflects my repetitive search for memories and connections.
