ARTIST STATEMENT
Abstract as Alphabet:
In 1968 Minimalism was Posting and I graduated from Palisades High School.
I moved directly down the Pacific Coast Highway to Venice Beach.
At the time I was unaware it would be a SoCal Art Hub, rent was dirt cheap.
My aptitude toward Geometry was good and I began Abstracting the Square.
Sculpture had Minimalized and I could see going inside and Abstracting it.
I preferred a rectangle over a square, It was elongated and more elegant to divide.
These divisions gave me a series of interchangeable shapes I call my Alphabet.
I use these shapes as one would use letters to write sentences.
I use this Alphabet still today and it evolves in a natural progression.
Outer Space, Inner Space and Infinity have been prime factors in my work.
I never figured out infinity but my work deals with cyclic aspects of it.
