Artist Statement
I was born in a small town in northern New Jersey in 1966 and received my undergraduate degree in Architecture from Lehigh University and my Masters degree in Architecture from New Jersey Institute of Technology. Building forms and mechanical appurtenances have always interested me and are the primary inspiration for my work.
Ever since I was an undergraduate at Lehigh University, surrounded by the Bethlehem Steel Mills, I have explored my own inner ‘factory’ with the goal of creating a visual language that articulates my own theories of art/life. I loosely describe my artwork as Industrial with architectonic and mechanical influences referencing Cubism, Constructivism, Dadaism and the Steampunk movement.
In arranging the compositions for my paintings I combine both static and dynamic elements that allow the eye to flow around the objects simulating movement. Then, in rendering the final image, I combine a variety of textures, hints of color, glances of light and finally some smoke/steam imbuing the image with a delicate touch that transcends its underlying mechanical references.
My work has been described as: “A mysterious schematic for an extraterrestrial widget” - Colin Berry, Artweek
Schematic: Generalized diagram, plan, or scheme
Extraterrestrial: Outside or originating outside the limits of the earth
Widget: A small mechanical device whose name is not known or cannot be recalled
