High Frequency
Created between 2020 and 2024, High Frequency is a body of abstract work shaped by prolonged engagement with surface, repetition, and revision. Many of the paintings evolved slowly over several years, accumulating layers through cycles of working, pausing, and reworking.
The term High Frequency speaks to intensity rather than speed. These works are among the most layered in my practice, carrying visible traces of pressure, persistence, and return. The series sits between control and excess, holding energy in a condensed, material form.
Side Street Sounds
Acrylic on canvas, 19.5 x 19.5 x .75 inches (50 cm x 50 x 2 cm)
This painting is a memory of a night in New Orleans in between bars being surrounded by the lights and sounds coming from the bands playing inside of the bars. We moved from one to the next—drink, dance, then on to the next one.

Sense Exploration
Acrylic on canvas, 18 x 22 x .75 inches (45 cm x 56 x 2 cm)
During the period when I painted this piece, I was studying media theory and the history of communications and technology in order to develop a deeper intuition for my work as a user interface / user experience designer. I was very interested in how information signals impress humans, and how human behavior—and subsequently human culture—is made from feedback loops of impressions and mirroring. In this painting I’m seeing the signals and information presented symbolically through a medium that is both organic and inorganic. Ascemic writing on the canvas gives signals that refuse translation.

Material world
Acrylic on canvas, 16.5 x 23.5 x .75 inches (42 cm x 59.5 x 2 cm)
The complexity of our inner world meets the chaos of our outer world. We’re left seeking our true selves within the walls of culture and algorithms.
Festival
Acrylic on canvas, 16.5 x 23.5 x .75 inches (42 cm x 59.5 x 2 cm)
The first musical festival I ever went to was Glastonbury. When I lived in the states I heard music at various community festivals, but had never been to a music festival. When I first experienced Glastonbury—I loved the atmosphere. I love that it is a safe place where you can completely relax and unplug from the demands of the outside world and join thousands of people in celebrating music. Glastonbury was a lucky first festival to go to because of how expansive it is—every genre seems to be covered at this festival, as multiple little villages arise from this farm to morph into a carnival adventure.
Night dance
Acrylic on canvas, 17.75 x 21.75 x 1.5 inches (45 cm x 55.5 x 3.5 cm)
Nights out, festivals, and celebrations have their place—but it is possible to have too much of a good thing. This painting reflects a period when the nights-out were beginning to feel repetitive—choreographed evenings that we kept repeating. Same night, same dance. The party has been broken into it’s component parts and re-built, optimized for efficiency. The era comes to an end as night life shuts down thanks to the covid pandemic.
Life of the Party
Acrylic on canvas, 15.75 x 19.75 x .75 inches (40 cm x 50 x 2 cm)
The best moments are the moments when we can truly surrender and experience life fully. We are each responsible for our own growth and transcendence within the continuum of consciousness.
