The paintings use schematic transformations to create abstractions. They try not to be simply derivative or imitative. They are interested in the performative as well as the transformative. They skirt the edge of parody and profundity, no matter how dangerous the terrain. They suggest various phenomena that have been repressed and/or translated into new models for a future world - a detached world that celebrates every coming advance with sadness. They are metaphorical and realist, poetic and descriptive. They are history paintings and relics.
