Artist's Statement

My work explores the transitional landscape where the digital world merges with fluidity and abstraction. Textile pattern is combined with craft, and decorative art using paint, collage, marker, and print. Netting, stripes, and dots reference networks of digital circuitry that transmit a stream of shapes and colors. Shallow space and layered opaque shapes reflect encrypted digital spaces that hinder access, such as the flat, impenetrable screen of a computer, capable of projecting the illusion of depth. Visual dissonance and humor are created in the confusions of solid form and negative space, anxious objects and bright Pop colors. The accumulation of these visual elements creates unconventional constructions, a language of fluidity that interrupts innate power structures of the original form.
