Abstract
To transcend my standard way of art making, I have revoked all intent or previous purpose. I work intuitively, reacting to each mark as it is placed and developing an image on the matrix rather than the mind. This mode evokes internal conflict to spill into the physical world, as they are not allowed to dawdle in the mind. The resulting images are psychosomatic: they are the physical symptoms that manifest from an underlying mental disturbance. They are not the cause of the problem, only the residue created from the mind taking form.
