NACHT NACHT

This is a collection of pieces made over the last two years. The work is solely comprised of monotype prints. A monotype is a single run printing process where an image is made on plexiglass and then sent through an etching press. The result is a one of a kind print that can never be reproduced again. I utilize the subtractive method when cteating these images. My process begins with laying down a solid black form and removing ink with a variety of tools. This markmaking process gives me unlimited freedom to create anything from my imagination. These are examples of NEOTROGLOCISM: sophisticated mark-making, crude objectivity. The characters contained within reference many different cultural mythologies. My love for the unseen is a driving force in my creative process. My goal is to illuminate the faces and bodies that live in our collective subconscious. Thank you and enjoy.
