Statement:
Patternscapes is a body of work based on the simplicity and complexity of memory, which both reduces and elaborates. Remembered experience is reference, while pattern draws out fragments of clarity to recreates detail, creating a lexicon of texture and rhythm. Linear marks capture the texture of foliage or the presence of small waves across the surface of the water, and colors vibrate against each other, both emotive and descriptive.
