Artist Statement
My works are seeking to bring together the traditionally separate realms of East and West; art and science. In the synthesis of Oriental and Occidental art, I find comparison rather than contrast and symbiotic relationship wherein the human ingenuity which produces the aesthetic and spiritual, endogenously and exogenously, requires the analytic and curious to attain appreciation. Yin and Yang proceed, crucial to our power to live together in harmony.
