I think of my work as long projects. They continue to grow and change even after I’ve finished working on them. The work exists, and the colors, shapes, and values continue to be observed. New reflections and paths are found through and around the work. A great appreciation for observation, turning “windows” into various moments and feelings. I don’t know how to be in a space properly, or that’s how it feels some of the time. I want to make things that belong somewhere. Sometimes being bored is a good thing. Consciously trying to be present and bring my full attention to what’s most immediate. Sometimes it feels soothing to follow a pattern. Sometimes I get lost. I’ve been enjoying the weight of patience and slowness in seeing and making, as well as the separation from an image when experimenting with a long process, labor, and intention. Finding a balance between deliberate decision making and looseness around a vision.
