Pure Taste Indicator - Artist Page

Raw Vision, Dream, Symbol, Mystery, Soul Food Art contains me as sanctuary and vehicle, providing the opportunity to develop an expressive visual language of my life s experience. Using the body as metaphor to address the human psyche, my work is rich in content with strong archetypal and biomorphic images. As a conduit for the collective unconscious, I integrate mythological references into my personal imagery. Although my initiating impetus is often rooted in the personal, the completed works speak to the universal, reflecting larger concerns with the soul of humanity and our severely impacted natural environment. Usually working in series, each piece captures a still moment in an unfolding progression. Recording a waking dream, I proceed intuitively. My raw approach presents an unexpected juxtaposition of images. Exploring seeming dualities of containment/expansion, layered/unveiling, hidden/visible, rooted/transcendent, I play on the unexpected, exquisite edge of darkness and light.
