Through paintings and concrete forms, I am exploring how the present might appear from a future vantage point. Within the paintings, abstracted architectural forms dwell in boldly colored landscapes and layered, hazy skylines. Structures emerge, cautiously seeping out of their environments, or drifting in aimless flight patterns. Whether engulfed in an emotionally charged atmosphere, or a quiet fog of ambiguity, these mysterious landscapes blur the boundaries of time and space.
