In thinking of how my artistic practice may be affected by living and working in southern Italy, I began to realize that I instinctively respond to an aesthetic that may be intrinsically and historically Italian. I am attempting to explain a visual duality that cannot be easily defined, but embraces both grace and masculinity, virtuosity and naiveté, chaos and geometric order.
