It is my intention to devote my studies to exploring a visual narrative of interiors and lost spaces. Thus far my graduate work at SCAD has led me to an understanding that I am drawn to an old world charm as an effort to combat contemporary loneliness.
In 2012 our world is more connected than ever before. The past is no longer a century ago it is a millennium ago. Savannah Georgia is a town that is filled with history that can be experienced in a tangible and personal way. With reverence for the significance of the experience, my plan is to visit numerous historical homes, plantations and hospitals in Georgia to work on location. These days a scholar may be more likely to visit a website than a historical site. Rejecting a post-modern dialogue in favor of a fin-de-siècle style will be an intentional effort on my part to hearken back to a time when aesthetics dominated and philosophy guided the work of the painter.
Historical spaces are often vacant and filled with forgotten objects. My complex exploration of these interiors has led me to developing a painting style that is both representational and abstract. In my paintings objects are represented, and sentiments are abstracted. The combination of the two seems to result in a synthetic type of cubism that continues to emerge as I improve my work.
