I do not paint what I see.

I build what remains after the seeing has dissolved.

My work is an act of reconstruction —

from memory, from erosion, from fragments of feeling.

I work in oil, pigment, fiber, and form.

Each surface I touch becomes a field of tension — between presence and absence, between clarity and collapse.

What I seek is not perfection, but the resonance that lingers after forgetting.

To remember is to distort.

To distort is to see more clearly.
