Kaivalya is a Sanskrit word that combines solitude, detachment, and isolation. This work was created while my family was away on vacation. The time alone was quiet and liberating but also lonely and self-reflective. My studio practice is an extension of my meditation practice. I find that I often experience the sensation of being in flow and observing myself simultaneously. An engaged detachment in which I experience what I can only describe as oneness.

STATEMENT

I believe we are storytellers by nature. It takes stories to make us human; it takes stories to keep us human. We have always looked to the stars and created heroes and myths, stood before the ocean and interpreted its mysteries to make gods and monsters. I tell stories with gesture and form, surface and texture, in an attempt to convey that same sense of awe and wonder. I want people to find their own meaningfulness in my paintings rather than be concerned about literal meaning. In this way, we are sharing stories; discovering what makes us truly human.
