The “Kerfuffle” paintings represent a different visual format from my previous exhibitions.
The new work interposes rebus-like constellations of small paintings which speak about
longing, innuendo, cliches and strategies that take wrong directions.

More measured in appearance, the Kerfuffles” project subjective values and self-subscribed
metaphors, imagined events and fabricated conceits about life. Hermetic juxtapositions employing
motifs, vignettes and miniature worlds that talk back with capricious irritability about a life lived.

Relying less on over the top opulence and color, the new paintings promote a more somber and
distilled palette, while still employing collage interventions and strategies of the hand.
