My work is a hybrid combining painting, sculpture,
and installation. I work with color and light, using
acrylic on paper, and the phenomena of reflected color
on the wall. Each piece is an interaction between
painted paper elements pinned out from the wall, and the
color cast on the wall by unseen fluorescent paint on
the back of the paper, which implicates the wall and the
surrounding space in the piece.
These floating paintings exist in the gap between painting
and object. Subtle manipulation of color relationships
between the frontal plane and the colored glow on the wall
causes an optical disorientation, which raises questions
about the discrepancy between what we see and what we know.
Part of the meaning of my current work resides in the
tension created between maximum optical energy and
minimal physical materiality.
