Abstract Oil on Paper Collage

American, b.

My work is driven by a curiosity into the investigation of mind through art. None of us can avoid thoughts, but through awareness of our pitfalls, beauty, strengths, and weaknesses we can open windows into the mind. The core of my contemplative art practice is to visually embody the blind spots as a result of our thoughts. I am interested in the study of how the mind works as a means of gaining insight, how we communicate, how we create an identity through form, emotions, and consciousness, and how we hide in that creation. Essentially this work is about all of us and the empty, clear and unconditional nature of mind we all have. When we know the nature of our mind we will know the nature of our world.
