FROM THE SERIES • (post) MODERN LOVE It would be an understatement to say that the contemporary love landscape is fragmented. Digital proxies, invented identities, sexual immediacy, the pressures of comparisons to how things “used to be" (and so much more), all make the concept of “LOVE” seem quaint. The entire picture can overwhelm and could inspire hopelessness. But throughout it all, I see HOPE. In this series of works, I explore those themes. All of the portraits here were generated with AI as an exploration of identity and the role of technology in such a deeply human thing. They are then hand-cut-and nested within layered compositions using authentic romance comics of the 1960s, complex patterning, and snippets of Native American poet Duane Niatum’s masterwork “Love Poem,” in which he captures the longing, isolation, and hope that is the centerpiece of this series. LOVE POEM by Duane Niatum The twilight of your face, the unknown bird in your voice, drew me to your eyes’ green vision, your song about a moment that stood in the shadow of a moon vulnerability, a Natalie I saw standing alone, at your friend Carolyn’s party years ago, where you called me to your side, and I held my heart, cupped in the palm of my life, as an offering to your smile, our soft-spoken isolation.

BIOGRAPHY I am most interested in exploring belief systems, the birth and death of the American Dream, the nature and validity of desire, as well as identity and loss on a personal level. Visually, my work lies at the intersection of the organic, the geometric, the iconic, the abstract, and the found. All of that takes shape into mostly large-scale assemblage pieces that hover in between mediums. I feel like my body of work can be encapsulated in three words :: abstraction, definition and deconstruction. I have had works appear in juried art shows across the US, shown with selected galleries, have shown in several cities with The Other Art Fair, had my work featured on the album art for multi-platinum-selling musical artist Andy Grammer, been chosen from over 100,000 artists to be featured in the Saatchi Art catalog, had my work published in multiple art magazines and publications, and was selected for inclusion in the London Art Biennale. STATEMENT I am a mixed media visual artist. The rhythmic, the esoteric, the mystic, the poetic, and the intuitive drive my work. All of those shape my aesthetic and give my pieces backbone. The breadth of the sublime, the mist of inner spaces, and the intrinsically American are also found on my canvases. My long background as both a writer and designer roots the abstract work in language, both conceptual and visual.
