This is a hand modified digital print on archival paper. Each print in this series includes an area printed on reflective metallic foils and then collaged onto the print's surface. This print is a contemplation piece related to the artists ongoing concept of 'thoughtful objects' - visual sounding boards for guided contemplation. 'Thinking Twice' plays with the concept of 'justice' as an archetypal female and doubled figure. The foreground includes imagery of blind lady justice with scales and sword shown twice, suggesting the punitive and nurturing aspects of justice as order. The red vessels in the mid ground allude to the human heart, implying the similarity between the iconography of 'love' and 'justice' - both are shown as blind and armed. In the background we see ancient and modern looms indicating the fate theme but also a form of production relegated to women in many societies. This further complicates the allusive relationship between love, punishment, and equity. All pieces are hand signed and numbered by the artist on front in the lower right and on verso.

I make thoughtful mixed-media works that mediate friction between narrative and materiality. Novelistic pastiche and intuitive abstract painting confront each other in a bricolage of photographs, paint, and found objects. From a trace discovered in a few abject elements at the beginning of my process, I interweave strata, adding and subtracting components strategically or intuitively to create a quirky grammar of intellect and wonder. While my development has been steadily nourished by great mixed-media artists of the past, including Kurt Schwitters, Robert Rauschenberg and the Kienholzes, I'm also inspired by contemporaries like Fred Tomaselli, Julian Schnabel and Barnaby Furnas. Due to a lifelong visual impairment, I have access to the Library of Congress audio collection; the books I listen to while painting frequently inform my work. I think of my pieces as contemporary equivalents to religious icons, memory gardens or totem poles; abstracted story-boards in which the gaze explores systems of interpretation and meaning in a shared situation with the artwork. My practice seizes the narrative debris of Spectacle - advertisements with their flattened affect, litter, hyper-real media images, plastic paint - and humanizes them in matrices of personal symbolism. I strive to push the narrative element as far as it can go in materiality and, beyond merely illustrating, signify stories infused with broad, universal themes and questions.
