Artist Statement:

This exhibition looks at making meaning from your life in a way that is organic and that embraces the idea of finding peace in being small. Choosing to notice your life as glimpses of light and time. Finding reverence for the ironically common yet profound, esoteric nature of humanity. To me, abstract painting is highly conceptual. Formally, what sets my work apart is only that it comes from me and it comes from a distinct space in the larger collective ecosystem. None of this is new, we’ve all seen abstract paintings thousands of times, and I’ve never been the only person doing the kind of work that I do in the objective sense. I’m not unique and amazing and hyperbolic on paper. But the marks I make, at the moment I make them, in the space that I do, with the intention and the history and context behind it - that can’t be replicated. And I feel like we can apply that to almost everything we enjoy. Whether it’s an outfit or a freshly made bed or a song or a really good croissant or a sunset or a laugh or a swim. That’s the paradox of personhood - being unexceptional yet rare.
