DISTURBER

When you face immobilizing questions of death and free will, what other possibilities are there than turning to religion? It seems like art is a good alternative, given its relevant and parallel history to religion, replicating transcendent themes in the corporeal world. I’m interested in the development of color and composition throughout art history to the point where it was attacked, torn apart, and dispersed. I’m rebuilding elements of more traditional form and content in the studio and documenting them with large-format photography and painting to enliven a dialogue with the rigor of art history and artists, hopefully applying it to essentially timeless themes with updated perspectives.
