Artist statement
I try to make images that resonate with some earlier activity, that hold a sense of absence, that catch things at the margins. My prints are built up from drawings or photographic images, sometimes worked into. I have recently used etching, photoetch and photoscreen/silkscreen.
I am seeking to use my printmaking as a way of registering daily experience, and an awareness of the multitude of separate consciousnesses constantly shifting through the town and the city. Images set at the periphery are a starting point for an exploration of many unknown individual narratives.
Printmaking is for me a way of seeing things more consciously and less casually, of indexing experience and controlling the chaos of incessant observation. I would like my prints to record the marginal and to merit the viewer wondering about them.
