Abstract:
The following text functions as an experimentation in thinking. It operates as a meandering around and through a network of ideas, thresholds, and temperatures much in the way I look to establish new and often opposing lines of inquiry within a body of paintings. It is my intention to develop a conversation between these ideas and to add a degree of transparency, without directly speaking of the methodological and attitudinal operations within my practice. Instead, the text operates as a document, parallel to my practice, perhaps even the beginnings of a manifesto.
