“Juxtaposition — placing two or more seemingly unrelated images together and creating a new relationship, a new reality- is the source of most of my work. In this way, my art reflects the Dadaist and Surrealist prescription for creating a new art of “the marvelous” or the magical. Similarly, I am drawn to the magical realism of Latin American writers such as Jorge Luis Borges, Vicente Huidobro, Octavio Paz, Pablo Neruda, and others. Juxtaposition allows me to create a sense of surprise and internal meaning. In my use of both digital and photographic mediums I make these two realities meld and merge, pushing it beyond the innovations of the Surrealists”
