EDITION INFORMATION

In my current paintings on paper, I am inventing new spaces and a vivid contemporary folklore to explain them. "Cul de sac" and "IPO Headquarters" are extrapolations of urban spaces in Miami. The pawn shops and laundromats, realtors and XXX adult video stores are elements in my stageplay. Tilting planes upward against gravity, building with crooked walls, quilting together fields of color, overflowing patterns, and pasting words from signs onto building facades like poetry, I work in the constantly shifting pictorial space of theater. Pattern provides the vital pulse, or visual rhythm, and energizes the atmosphere in my work.
