  • ARTIST STATEMENT: "My images are puzzles without clear resolution. They are sort of conceptual Rorschach tests. The clues that inform the narratives are social, cultural, philosophical and metaphysical."
  • "Most of my pictures are not traditional photographs. They are composites and improvisation is key to my process. When creating pictures I work spontaneously and intuitively, trying to come up with images that have a somewhat mysterious quality."
  • "An important unifying factor is that all of these images are, for the most part constructed using appropriated bits and pieces. I say for the most part, because often a piece will center on a photograph I have taken and often as the theme is developing I am called to take additional pictures to complete the idea. So what results is a hybrid mixture of imagery."
