As I understand it, painting is a constant process of perfecting oneself. To this end, my art explores underlying truths about my relationship to myself and to our rapidly changing society. Many of my pieces reflect an inner psychological conflict or momentary feeling. I paint something that is alive and not particularly perfect.
My brush strokes are loose, but controlled where they need to be, carefully following the form of an object; I paint with emotion. I want my technique to reflect a sense of urgency and heightened movement. In terms of surfaces, one of my favorites is cardboard. I believe that cardboard, which many people overlook, is more closely related to the constructed and ephemeral nature of contemporary life.
People have always been the core subject of my artwork. I am interested in themes of memory, emotional reflection, and the passage of time. My creativity arises in confrontation with my surroundings, and my work attempts to construct images that unite perception and memory. I focus on the value of the individual in scenes of everyday life.
Sometimes, I begin with multiple candid pictures of myself. I look for a common thread, combining images to create a compelling narrative. I use my own image in autobiographical paintings to explore my inner world. When selecting photos, I prefer candid shots that offer “genuine” moments. I want my work to be intimate, honest, and tactile.
Although I work primarily in acrylic, my work often incorporates discarded materials found in my recycling bin or in my backyard, such as coffee holders, dried flowers, twigs, etc. I look for poetry in the everyday.
I hope that my artwork can pass a familiar warmth to the audience and provoke them to think about deeper issues rooted in contemporary society.
