"I am attracted both to order descending into chaos and the “new” rising from it. Urban and industrial landscapes in decay and the “unweeded garden” are inspirations. Choice of collage materials reflect this interest. Things that have been left behind (old magazines, encyclopedias, user manuals, maps and blue prints) are repurposed thereby restoring and reinventing their relevance."
