My work mixes graphic design ideals of balance and form
with imagery that evokes the technical or scientific. I
see each piece as a pure aesthetic exercise combined with the visualization
of an imaginary object, dream-like and half-captured in the frame.
The process: I usually start with a simple monochromatic graphical element,
and through hand replication and processing in the computer turn it into a multi-layered,
complex piece. No photographic or preexisting textures are used. Focusing
on a section of the image, I then crop out areas to create the feeling
of tension and energy I’m looking for. The image then becomes a flat piece of art encased in clear plastic, or is transformed into a dimensional work by breaking the plane into repeating panels that are mounted perpendicular to the wall.
For the first part of my career I created work specifically for the
web. I explored the interactive, motion and time-based possibilities
of the medium. Although I still enjoy working in that space, I’ve
decided to take the next logical step and concentrate on creating physical
works.
