Artist Statement
 

 

 

 

There is a vibe in an urban environment that I find fascinating. I enjoy the energy in a big city, learning the layout, admiring the architecture, visiting an art gallery or observing peoples' adaptations to city life. My Urbanus Series is based on this keen interest in the urban environment. My art reflects my response to architecture, culture, design, infrastructure, globalization, neighborhood, public art, history and demographics. I create contemporary, abstract topographies using wood, paint, pencils and markers to illustrate the rich layers of urban life.
