Artist Statement

I am red wine-sautéed shrimp in lemon pepper and large plate glasses

I am swelling black oil-like rivers, ripples in a stain epoch where

I ride a train of discretion to sit beside hordes of new wealth

I am wandering through the powerful, unaware of my own power, therefore

I am breathing its voice to speak generations of understanding

I am in the habit of drawing water from stones as

I craft art from information
