Benefit for Material Awareness

The process and material basis of the pieces try to encourage a visual dissonance between the illusions inherent to painting and the tactile object qualities of the material's applications and usages. At the same time, there is meant to be a cyclic and reflexive relationship between their painted frame and the self-referential materiality; in a sense, aspiring to self-awareness. Ideally, the ephemeral and physical nature of the pieces gives premise to an intrinsic realism.
