As an artist, I am concerned with the various
aspects of space as well as with the different layers of perception and
consciousness. I often try to explore non-traditional ways of dealing
with space and depth by painting various layers of transparent imagery
on top of an opaque, first layer. My work usually contains figurative
elements as well, which reflect my enduring concern with the nature of
human existence throughout the ages.Sometimes
I like to introduce certain pictorial elements within a given painting
that seem to have little relevance to the rest of the imagery in that
painting. This is meant to reflect the incongruity, the
unpredictability, the mystery and even the absurdity, all of which I
see as a part of the fabric of life. I also often make engraved lines
that go through the textured surfaces of my paintings right down to the
canvas, or other ground layer.
