In a word, I’m anxious. Anxious about the world I am a part of everyday. My work is about the anxiety. Advertisements, tabloids, internet blogs, television commercials and reality TV all serve to placate us by distraction. We become paralyzed by this material overload, leaving us apathetic and disconnected from the brutal reality around us. These distractions serve as the motivation and the physical surface in my work. Surfaces of magazine paper and paint are added layer upon layer then destroyed. I conceal then expose. What is left is a veiled commentary on what drives the anxiety.
