Welcome!

Since the last installment of my website, my work and interests have grown tremendously, as I have incorporated the use of photogrophy into my art, not just as a medium for creative digital rendering but also as a journal of my social views. I have also taken to the habit of writing anecdotes, mostly experiential, (though I have preserved the liberty to add a dose of fiction where I felt appropriate). The application of multiple disciplines has freed me both as an artist, and as a person, and therefore I wanted my site to reflect these changes in my art practice.

My passion for color and form is presented in paintings and digital rendering. My social commentary is presented through photo, painting, and writing. In terms of aesthetics, I continue to be fascinated by form and color, especially those present in nature. I observe plant and animal life, the sky, soil, rock, mountain and water; I am truly fascinated with the geometry found in nature and I make use of my observations in my works on paper and in my canvas series.

The application of color has been a constant practice of mine for the last 10 years. Artists such as Mondrian, Albers, Rothko, and Klein explored these concepts, and I am proud to build upon their investigations. From the simplicity of Wolff Kahn to the complexity of Matta. I am interested in the vibratory experiences that intertwined color creates. I have worked on two dozens paintings, which are on display under the series titled Pink Collection, named Intertwined; and in the series titled Lethal called hate vs. hate.

I am fascinated by the human condition, and all of our habitual behaviors and social urges and needs. Within our uniqueness exists a fundamental set of traits that unites us in this world. I am inclined to our combined karma. In my observations and meetings with people in India, Nepal, Europe, and South America, I have experienced a level of intimacy difficult to avoid, nor do I want to avoid it. Sensuality, inspiration, deep bonding, a sense of purpose and responsibility (perhaps a lack there of), impermanence, sorrow and passion are everywhere, from small towns in Nevada, USA to Mc Cleod Ganj, India. Regardless or our language, social traditions and opportunities we all experience very similar neurosis, pleasure, pains and desire.

The bodies of work include anecdotes on the search for ideals as well as for the fulfillment of basic needs. Since I have moved and traveled so much in the past 10 years, human migration greatly interests me as well; for this I have a collection of photos of people who have joined me on trains, buses and airplanes or those I watch attentively through my window seat. We are so very similar! We are people in transition, migrating, with bags and luggage, looking for something going somewhere, waiting and wanting our destination to be already palpable. At times I look at people’s eyes and find my eyes inside them. Sometimes I look inside I find myself in a constant movement, from project to project, from point to pint, from thought to thought.

Finding a human connection has grounded me everywhere I go. Even if I do not speak the primarily language in most of the places I have been, I find commonality with others and I find myself at home in the world.

I would like to call myself a social-driven artist but half of my brain is equally inclined to the pure process of art application, which produces a pure excitement to my senses.
