Movement is non-verbal; it is visual, sensual, pleasurable, and universal. With words often engulfing us in rationality, the sensorial loses its influence over our lives. I work intuitively in the creation of organic, abstract spaces and forms that seem to be living and constantly in motion, captured only in pause. I want my images to offer a quiet yet pulsating non-verbal space. Referencing beyond themselves, moving, shifting, and changing, the spaces fill with particularity yet remain ambiguous, they are strangely recognizable and still, representative of nothing in particular.
