Are You Trying to Be Dada indicates a meditative state. The green color, thin surface quality, and “nowhere space” reflect a peaceful frame of mind.  It has an atmosphere of rich, luminous greens and an  abstract visual language of dream-like Symbolism.  The influence of Hieronymus Bosch’s allegoric work, Dr. Seuss and the strange foliage of California can be seen in the odd biomorphic forms, flying creatures, floaty elements, strange amalgams and machines which orbit around an ambiguous central space and is energized by an obscured narrative.

I maintain a studio in an artist colony in Los Angeles, California. Much of my recent work reflects on contemporary society and the political upheaval currently featured on the news. My interpretations are combined with my unconscious and become self-portraits of sorts- of a dark and quirky inner life. No one meaning predominates, only states of ambiguity, where strong undercurrents of emotion combine with murky, dream-like scenes of danger and destruction and contribute to a disjointed sense of unease in an unpredictable world.
