nomadic curatorial projects
From the material I collect, I perform various strategies of image manipulation defined by collage, dissection, re-contextualization, free-association, and ultimately transformation. Through this process I am able to address my interest in the contradictions and ambiguity of visual culture. The majority of this activity is cast through the prism of printmaking, and as a result, is heavily invested in concepts inherent to print media; repetition, multiplicity, layering, sequence, misdirection, ghosting, binary systems of thought and reversals. Prints are residue, traces of information, tracks in the snow. A print is never an isolated object. There is an innate reference to the source of its creation and the ability for that source to recreate at a different time. This issue addresses the manner in which afterthought and forethought convolute to create our immediate reality. This concept is the structure through which I explore the fragility of memory, the cracked logic of dreams and the gap between perception and actuality.
