“Every button
is stitched to its
neighbor to form a low-tech pixilated composi-
tion. Up close each piece is
an abstract mélange of colors and shapes; the further back one stands the more deci- pherable the image becomes. This interplay between ab- straction and representation is a source of interest to me. It is as though I am painting with buttons, building my palette as I go along, adding and subtracting until the interplay of colors and forms coalesces into a coherent image.”
