Contemporary Abstract Expressionism / Lyrical Abstraction

Paintings repeatedly hover between chaos and recognizable imagery. Forms seem to emerge, disappear, and reorganize themselves. The viewer starts finding faces, landscapes, figures, mechanical shapes, maps, celestial forms, etc., whether or not they were deliberately painted.

The Ink Series uses empty printer ink cartridges mixed with water and mediums to create the entire painting

TarART is based on the tar repair designs on streets. The earth creates the cracks and from this, I create the art. 

I lived in Berlin in 2019 to paint.                                

The first day I was there I took a walk towards the Berlin Wall and found what would be the inspiration for my series called “Run Rabbit Run”.

The installation Kaninchenfeld (Rabbit Field) by artist Karla Sachse muses on the fact that when the Wall still stood, rabbits flourished in the wilderness of its death strip.  

They dug their tunnels directly beneath the barrier from one part of the city to another, and their presence, although beloved by East and West Germans alike, served as an ironic reminder of the freedom of movement denied to Berlin's human inhabitants.                 

Each painting has an image of a rabbit pin pointing the exact location people made a successful escape to the west.
