Second Look / Connections     In my work I examine an ambiguous and often fragmented world, an ominously spare one in which power and powerlessness collide and social and sexual roles shift endlessly, uneasily as we struggle to find purpose and meaning. Engaging the viewer has been paramount in all my efforts as we share a world of fear and hope.
     I draw from ordinary, popular sources (comic books, film noir, the daily papers) which so mirror the flux of life that spins us into conflict with each other and where so much is uncertain and enigmatic.
     To reinforce this sense of alienation, I catch my figures (sometimes alone, sometimes attracted, repelled) in the stop action of a single frame of film, using strong emotional color to emphasize the tenuous in life.
     Always connected, my work evolves from piece to piece and body to body, developing a coherency of thought and imagery, a realm in which to examine human sexuality and power and relates present work to earlier efforts but points to the future as well.
