Diaristic Fragmentation Paintings
I paint figures. Semi-abstract figures from my imagination. The stories I tell are formed/fed from decades of journaling.
Fragmentation of body parts is often present in my paintings. I grew up in a family of doctors/nurses. Talk about physiology/anatomy was common in our home. The fragmentation in my paintings is no longer about science but symbolism.
At Aabdock Studio, I amalgamate my memory/journaling with a keen visual sense. Amorphousness gives rise to what is seamless/steadfast. Tendencies abound that are un-standardized/un-formalist /un-technological. View Paintings
The Analog Collages
My collages speak to my history/memory/emotional complexity.
I never use digital sources for my collages. My collages use paper images sourced from old magazines/books/vernacular photos found in charity shops. The collages take shape by juxtaposing ordinary but unrelated images in a situation where neither belong.
I pay close attention to detail because attending to minute particulars remind me of my career as a dental hygienist. I rely on the exactitude of those fine motor to cut /position/glue the paper images. View Collages
