Pipette - Print
In the artist’s dream; she was sitting on an examination table when she noticed the nurse in the room was not human. Instead, a faceless chrome figure. A little rolling table with instruments on top. As the cold caretaker raised a slender translucent squiggly device, the dreamer leaned in with an outstretched finger toward the smooth mirror where the face would be. As her finger made contact with the reflections, they distorted into the soft skin.
The squiggly pipette is visible in the background of the painting, followed by brush marks of waking thoughts.

Catalyst Series
Reality is a matrix. Science can point back all the way to the big bang and show exactly how this came to be through mathematical calculation. There are fascinating, unintentional outcomes to our activities which reveal underlying structures of reality.
Like a prism that splits light into its separate constituents,† gravity pulls the pigments across the surface according to laws of nature. Similar to neurological pathways, the paths cut most often become stronger. The eternal past continues to reverberate through the present and into the future.
When confronted by our sometimes unintelligible reality, we rationalize it. We change the present and hope for
the future. Humanities’ innovations impact the universe in unexpected and exponential ways. We have the ability
to influence reality, but must accept the unplanned future outcomes.

Medium Choice
Gouache, an opaque watercolor, is selected for its fluid, transformative properties. Historically this medium was feminized and seen as lesser. However, the feminine is creation and responsible for birth and nurturing life. It is immediate and requires a decisive hand. The marks are indelible and cannot be easily covered. Water is what gives this medium its transparent properties and fluid movement. The layers compound into countless organic possibilities.
