"My art is a reflection of the environments that have surrounded me since childhood—the spaces we occupy, the boundaries we encounter, and the intersections where light and structure meet.
Growing in the shadow of New York’s elevated subways in the 1950s and the vibrant streets of Greenwich Village in the 60s, my world was shaped by the grit and grandeur of the city. Jazz was my music, film noir played on the screens, and abstract art, bold design, and rebellion found its way into my soul, igniting a lifelong fascination with the drama found in mysterious places and inanimate objects.
My work today is a continuation of this exploration.
I’m drawn to the built environment—the spaces we construct, the boundaries we navigate, and the edges where materials and light converge. I’m drawn to unusual details, shadows, geometries, and intersections that invite the eye to journey through and beyond. There’s a mystery and escapism in my world that both obstructs and reflects nature, and in my art I attempt to capture the audacity and ambition of these spaces. I’m fascinated by traces of human evidence left behind in hallways, stairwells, and empty offices. Spaces rich with mysterious stories, capturing the drama of absence and the impact of what once was.
From observations of the city and industry, to capturing the interplay of light and shadow in doorways and stairwells, my art is a journey of discovering shapes and connections. It’s a rediscovery of who I am, rooted in the past but always looking forward, eager to see where the next intersection will lead.”
