Artist's Statement

I have become an artist who is drowning in a sea of ones and zeros. Carving a digital identity through a symbiotic relationship between software, hardware, and wetware.

Wetware, a current label for the mind, perhaps to better integrate ourselves in a technologically focused existence. Software and hardware intertwining with my imagination results in pure digital simplicity. No matter how vivid the colors, how controversial the content, how dynamic the composition, each and every image from wetware through hardware to software becomes nothing more then 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, etc.

Threads of fiber carry my thoughts to the world, hungering for bandwidth on a crowded highway. Graphic suites become more advanced in order to become more intuitive, hardware becomes faster and more efficient, but wetware only grows old with wrinkles. Version numbers and MHz juxtapose new wrinkles spawned by new experiences. Where the two meet digital bliss, or digital blasphemy.
