Redefining the self requires becoming uncomfortable, getting twisted and at times confronting a bit of reorganization. This ongoing series of paintings depicts the discomfort of the body as the vehicle for redefinition. Whether we are reexamining our relationship to our past, our present, our relationships, the planet, our beliefs, each require contortion, acrobatics and the desire to confront discomfort as a vehicle for change.
