My approach can best be described by a quote from Paul Klee: Art does not reflect what is seen, rather it makes the hidden visible. Beauty is everywhere, hidden in plain sight: in the urban patina of weathered graffiti; the shadows and reflective surfaces of the built environment, classical art, classic cartoons and boardgames, the ephemera of found images, the residue of grit and fluff at the bottom of an old purse and the odd assortment of junk in my kitchen drawers. I combine my photography of the minutiae of everyday life with maps, scientific diagrams, public domain images, and generative AI tools into digital juxtapositions. I then print them, paint and draw on them, cut them up and reassemble them, photograph them, and repeat this iterative process to discover underlying patterns that emerge from these encounters. My goal, expressed in a quote by the artist Robert Smithson, is to establish enigmas, not explanations.
