Both borrowing from and subverting my training as an architect, I'm interested in exploring drawing as a process that merges the physical and mental landscape. The result is an ambiguous articulation of labyrinthian space, scale, and detail. As opposed to the Renaissance ideal of the one-point perspective, I depict a multiplicity of lines both extruded and intersecting, which require the viewer a constant repositioning. At times from
a secure vantage point, at times adrift within the shifting array of access points, they are equivalents of our perceived realities - that which mediates an entirety versus a collection of interwoven moments that emerge and recede.
