I draw and actively solve problems of my own making. The drawing is the direct statement most well described by Rumi: "Out beyond ideas...there is a field. I'll meet you there. " Usually these drawings describe some kind of space. I don't look at anything when I draw, just busy myself in the activity. These drawings are quiet diplomats from other planes perhaps.

In conceptual projects I actively engage the concrete world: people, situations and environments. I create trace reflections on what I find already happening by leaving a visual pattern behind in the space, or I assign an intention to actual stuff lying around. It's a kind of engaged philosophy in which presence, relationship or activity become clumsily visible, often through simple, playful systems designed for the occasion.

Projects that I call 'intermediaries' bridge the two, or lie somewhere between them.
