To all my friends from around the world: Thank you for looking at my art!
ARTIST'S STATEMENT:
My art is an exploration into the way we PERCEIVE time and space.
One way that I explore space perception is to cut holes in a top canvas to reveal a painting underneath. This, in effect, creates a "window in space", revealing a plane beyond another plane.
I try to make three-dimensional elements of my art look two-dimensional. I also try to make two dimensional flatness look three-dimensional. I like to blur the definition of what is a painting and what is a sculpture. I'm searching for the elusive fourth dimension, that grey area between the reality we can touch, and the perceived reality in our brain. I believe the fourth dimension is not located beyond the third dimension, but somewhere in between the second and third dimensions.
