My current work is characterized by an exploration of sequence and lateral narratives in relation to a discussion about how meaning is generated via interactions between images, as well as through the act of constructing those images.  I am interested in how art objects or collectives of images act as systems of meaning, and how those systems relate to systems (both physical and metaphorical) in the world. Implicit in this work is an investigation of performativity in the constructed object and how image functions to indicate that action.

From very early on I became interested in myths, particularly origin stories. Beyond the shear entertainment value inherent in those types of stories, there is always a drive to understand how we come to be in the world, what it is all for—from the human perspective. It’s this question without an answer, or with many answers. And I think the transition from myth to math, philosophy and science happens very easily. E. O Wilson has been known to comment that the theory of evolution is itself a sort of creation myth, an attempt to examine or explain how we came to be here, how the world works. So from that point of view, many contemporary areas of study are all about seeking truth, which turns out to be just a long series of related questions with few concrete answers. Fertile ground. This is not just a conversation about language; it is also about ontology. My work often combines literary, philosophical, and scientific questions with materials and technology from daily life. My hope is that these works serve as metonymical apparatuses. They are micro systems that attempt to synthesize and critically engage for us the complex but poetic experience of being in the world.
