I paint minimalist abstract compositions that explore the relationship between real and imagined worlds, personal and collective memories. living in new york city, my inspiration comes from my immediate surroundings: the corner of a townhouse, the curved edge of a rooftop, the silhouette of a skyscraper. the original urban references, however, are stripped of any specific feature to achieve purity of lines, colors, and geometries. In doing so, I seek to create generic and familiar landscapes that evoke memories that are intimate and personal.
the use of ample negative space and stark chromatic contrasts are further invitations for the viewer to fill the voids with their own imagination and identify in each piece. by exploring a shared visual language, I discover the fascinating complexity of human perception.
