New Body of Work (2011-present)

Since grad school, I have watched my work veer towards the non-objective. I can't explain it in words just yet, but Georges Braque (1882-1963) can. In 1955, he said:
"I have made a very great discovery - I no longer believe in anything. Objects do not exist for me except if there is a harmonious relationship between them, and also between them and myself. When one arrives at this harmony, one arrives at a space of intellectual nothingness. In this way, everything becomes possible, everything becomes right, and life is an eternal revelation. That is true poetry."
- quote from The Art Museum (2011) Phaidon Press, p. 372
