My methodology has always been to explore and collect, guided by intuition instead of strictly by reason. First informed by my environment through close observation, later creating sequences and narratives that seek to articulate the deeper, often hidden connections within my subjects.
Most of my projects unfold over many years. They remain open and evolving, reflecting the slow accumulation of experience.
Central to my work is an inquiry into what I think of as the metaphorical ontology of place: how territory, ecology, and atmosphere form a living structure of meaning. The work is my attempt to understand and communicate the spirit or identity of the environment.
As a person that is highly sensitive and overly stimulated in his environment, I hold a strong conviction that our mental and physical health is directly and profoundly tied to our atmosphere. So, I choose to examine and excavate my emotions tied directly to my environment and current state of being.
The external world is not merely a backdrop, it is an active participant to our inner state. Consequently, a core component of my work involves a disciplined process of examining and excavating my own emotions. The art, therefore, becomes a register of this internal and external dynamic, a record of how the atmosphere shapes the self.
