Certain marks, signs, scribbles, gestures are repeated by means of projection, stencils, and transfers. A vocabulary of visual chatter celebrates the distortions, interruptions, and interference within the painted/ printed surface. One of the subjects of these works is the compost of creation: the studio and the sketchbook as sites of raw visual fermentation.
