Statement

Recently in my artwork, I have found that time travel can be scientific, measured out in grids and numbers, and explained through theories such as Schrödinger’s Cat and wormholes, or it can be emotional, relying on sensations - such as a scent or a sound - that take you to a specific moment in time. I enjoy juxtaposing the scientific perceptions and the more emotional or sensory perceptions of time travel through my works.

Along similar lines I explore the idea of people making active versus passive choices to live in the past, present, or future. The simplicity of outlines and silhouettes in my artwork reflects the seeming simplicity of these choices, while frames of mottled gray represent their inherent complexity. Often, the combination of these elements creates ambiguous scenes that wait for interpretation from the viewer.
