Axis Mundi - Moraga, CA

The speed at which cultural change occurs presents a real challenge to the symbolic order of our society and to a meaningful dialectical discourse on crucial issues. The iconic signs and symbols of my artistic practice function as visual markers of the relationships between technology, art and society with a focus on deterministic trends, power relationships and media representations. From a teleological worldview, the future has an infinite number of options that alternate between Utopian and Dystopian end points. The meta goal of my artistic process is to sort out and confront questions that arise from the clash of human necessity and new technology as well as the role of art and artists in the creation of compassionate new systems of meaning. The physical space in which art objects exist is engulfed by globally connected digital space. They are equally real and creative spaces for artistic exploration.
