About The Artwork
There’s something in the air is one of the many 'swing' artworks I've made. It represents the freedom you feel as a child. At the same time, it shows how locked up the children live today. Inside, behind their laptops and smartphones. This mixed media / collage artwork is made with layers of acrylic paint and magazine paper. Arranged over each other in such a way that a deeply layered whole is created. The inspiration for this technique is the torn posters and peeling paint found on old city walls.

I assemble original photography, assorted papers, acrylics, oil, charcoal, ink and pencil in my works. The variety of resources I am able to use has proved indispensable to me. The biggest challenge the collage medium posed was its unforgiving lack of transparency. Finding a way to replicate the effects of transparency afforded by paint, especially water colors, was “a large victory” for me . The preparing labor shows through in my collages; layer upon layer of material remains visible in the finished pieces. I believe my body of work is characterized by my skill for reinvention. Having always loved the appearance of weathered walls plastered with peeling paint and old posters, I revive this aesthetic with hopefully a keen and professional eye. The creative objective of my work is to “make something beautiful out of dilapidation.”My tableaus explore the dissonance between old and new materials, intertwined in the most beautiful possible way to create dreamlike and melancholy images.
