Artist Statement
I am a printmaker. I draw on plates. Recently I began applying my hand at drawing on paper in a new body of work called ‘Jack’. My intent with my work is to graphically reveal imagery suggestive of the felt experience. I create in ‘series’ to record the delineation of emotion as constant movement and change. Utilizing images taken from the media the Jack drawings explore the climate of our current emotional landscape in visual renditions of what I am interpreting as the generic ‘every man’. An ongoing documentation of over 75 drawings to date they evoke both personal and cultural reflections. 'it ain't worth jack' is the 2nd installment of 5 from the 'Jack' series. The 1st installment titled 'just jack' was presented at the tART@AIR 2009 salon show.
