Artist Statement
My Art is NOT personal, it is NOT about my own psycho-emotional state or feeling. Also my work is NOT about contemporary social or political issues in the world of temporal experience. I do NOT seek to create didactic images that move the viewer to action or revulsion. Nor do I create images of desire through a depiction of genre scenes of daily life. I seek to hold the viewer at the still point of aesthetic arrest.
My Art is about creating mythic imagery for our time, but the reference is to something greater beyond our sense perception. It is to create visual metaphors that bring echoes of perennial truths in to our contemporary consciousness.
It is to render visible, the underlying meaning and purpose of humanity as is revealed by the new tools of knowledge, understanding, and perception.
It is to take that which is archetypal and sacred in our shared humanity and bring the essence forward to perceive its meaning in the continuum of life as a universal intent for the evolution of human consciousness.
My Art is about allowing perception to ascend between the pairs of opposites (space and time) and bring the viewer to the still point of aesthetic arrest, where the inner and outer worlds meet. Where we can transcend temporal experience and glimpse a higher order of consciousness which underlies and informs all life in the universe.
