Imagination.
I imagine color, shape, surface, form and pattern as elements in development of a visual language with which diverse narrative and poetic revelations can present themselves. Shapes and colors are suggesting and creating relationships, but those exist most purely before language. I try to compose with a collaboration between this sensitivity and expressive, intuitive collaboration between the mediums and myself. The connections, ideas, associations, narratives, etc. do manifest in the work but at the intersection of the boundless territory of mystery and imagination and the confines of language and structure.
