Artist Statement
This piece is part of a series exploring downtown Los Angeles, where I have lived for over 20 years and where I am fascinated by old buildings with worn-out paint, weathered posters, paint drips and colorful graffiti. Downtown, however, is not just that, it’s also a vibrant, developing part of the city and through my work I strive to portray these parallel dimensions of life.

This mixed media painting on wood was created using one of my photomontages printed on silk, paper collage and acrylics. These techniques allow me to collapse boundaries of time and space so that old and new can merge to tell stories, revealing realities beyond ordinary perception.
