Since much of my art is focused upon light on form, it should come as no surprise that I am attracted to Dia de los Muertos, where the parameter line in-between life and death becomes blurred. Shading doesn’t happen in the highlights or the core shadows, but in the spaces between them. A binary world seems less interesting than a fuzzy place where strange, unexpected things can happen. My work explores transitional spaces and limnal states; juxtopositons which lend themselves well to the theme of Dia de los Muretos.
