text + images

The landscape. The surface. The figure. Movement. The indefinite. The infinite.

I am interested boundaries and thresholds, experiences at the edges of perception. Beneath a façade of quiet, of perhaps emptiness resides an accumulation of information, the product of a single process followed to its logical conclusion. In some cases, the event itself has passed and the work is residue. In others, such as my sound and performance work, the event is unfolding and encompasses the viewer.

In all of these investigations, the passage of time and its relationship to bodies, marks, or sounds is pivotal. Each work evolves out of a system, an order of experimentation. Whether it is the dripping of water onto a page or walking for miles in the desert, each work speaks to a question about the nature of time, of intimacy with material and place, and a physicality of experience.

Included here are several images of drawings from last quarter and documentation of recent performance work in the California desert.
