This body of work explores the desire to control that which cannot be controlled. The very process of creating these images requires me to experiment with composition, asymmetry, color and inevitable accidents.I am always looking for the smallest fragment from which a whole can be intuitively constructed.

The images are created by pouring chemicals directly onto photo emulsion, allowing the pigment to form its own shapes and edges. This is an intuitive,elastic process of give and take between my intentions and the materials' behavior which, in contrast to painting on top of an already sealed canvas,limits the complete control I might have over the final product.
