Alchemical Light
Subtle vibrations in light unify the cosmos, Earth's elements and consciousness. My works search for this unity underlying matter.
This energy is communicative, sensitive to our responses through its depths. In paintings varied hues, tones, strokes and movements emit ranges of frequencies that in unison are a resonating field of energy, like instrumental tonalities. For me the concentrated power of a painting is this immediate wholeness, as spatial relationships in equilibrium allow an energetic openness and freedom to arise.
In physics frequencies of different objects align in a transfer of energy known as sympathetic resonance. And dissonant frequency patterns will align with one in vibrative coherence and cohesion. This principle informs my work. Discordant elements that may exist as counterpoints are subsumed within a broader spirit and peace.
Paintings come to me as experiences distilled into light. I liken them to tonal poems of beauty, mystery, wonderment in inner awareness, serving as an elemental preverbal presence holding deep stillness.
