Painting created through free improvisation. Action painting with music by Ben Howard.
I work in layers, where the new covers the old, but a trace always remains. Old drawings, childhood sketches, graffiti, phrases, and marks construct an unexpected story. The pieces fit together effortlessly, without forcing, sometimes overlapping.
Stories from the past and present. The unknown, what slips through our fingers... Nature, antiquity, the earthly and the spiritual.
We think we're gods, but we're just monkeys who've gotten ahead.
Gestural, intuitive painting that lets things happen and relies on what emerges. Taking advantage of the unexpected and accepting the consequences.
The need to tell stories, to leave a mark, to understand the world, which is always both modern and ancient.
Nothing matters much... Working with a vacant stare...
