This is a test

My collage work is a search for connections between shapes, textures, colors, found ephemera, photographs, acrylic prints, scans, patterns, words, and glyphs, which often feels like “visual neuroplasticity.” These unexpected connections between layered elements, whether adjacent, overlapping, or separated, create a lyrical, expressive, subtle, and often ineffable energy leading me to move things around—a kind of rewiring or expansion. Not all connections carry enough energy, which causes them to end while others keep going. This process often triggers forgotten memories in me, however diffuse or fragmented, and maybe it will happen to other viewers as well. I am interested in this visual dialogue.
