The realm of science has fascinated me as far back as I can remember. As a child I wondered about the depths of the oceans and lands far away. My college career began with intent on studying the sciences and it was only many years later and an emphasis change that I had the time to reengage with investigating my scientific interests.

    During my undergraduate studies, I was turned on to a cosmology course and since have independently pursued the subject with rigorous enthusiasm. The repercussions on my perception of the world and my place in it are, as a result, in a constant state of reorientation and thus, fascination. These paintings attempt to begin a dialogue dealing with communication and spatial relation.

   The images in these works emerged from universal time line and light cone diagrams found in many cosmology books. These diagrams are used to chart possibilities, past and present, of a given particle or object in space-time.

   The direction of these works went through an organic evolution that was not originally intended but welcomed. Through the actualization of the paintings the solidified forms became more of an animated community of individuals based on the cones and other “characters.” In a playful way they became an inquiry into human communication and processing, exploring how we receive, interpret, and relay messages.

   The images are still examinations of perspective and communication, but through their evolution have come to also reveal certain aspects of a more civic nature.
