“I’m interested in the painted surface as a platform, map, or screen on which the mental process is somehow internalized, reconfigured and then manifested in different ways of ‘recording’ that can often be compared to writing. Writing as an embodiment of the line – an atavistic instinct of navigating in space, of movement and self-consciousness.”
