  Artist

  I work abstractly at the juncture where sculpture and painting intersect. The process for my "Shards" series begins with recycled medical diagnostic film (X-Ray/MRI film) layered with acrylic monotype prints. The film is then torn apart and the shards are reconnected into new configurations using thousands of staples. The visual aesthetic is at once high-tech and primordial. It evokes a multitude of associations: aquatic life forms, otherworldly geological formations, surreal vegetation, scientific images of the miniscule, visions of the cosmos.
  
  I have exhibited widely, including Museum of Santa Severa - Italy, Berliner Liste, Fort Wayne Museum of Art, Rockford Art Museum, Lighthouse Center for the Arts in Tequesta FL, Gallery UNO Projektraum in Neukölln – Berlin, South Shore Arts in Munster, IN, and numerous other venues. I have been awarded artist residencies at Brush Creek Foundation for the Arts in Saratoga, WY, Ragdale in Lake Forest, IL, and Contemporary Artists Center in North Adams, MA.
  
  My work resides in numerous corporate, private, university, and museum collections across the U.S. and in Europe.
