ARTIST MISSION STATEMENT • ABOUT MY WORK
I am a poet, playwright, filmmaker and composer/producer living in the Greater Cincinnati area. My work centers around two main projects: The Wild Sonnets and The Atomic Symphonies.
To characterize what I create in an inclusive and conclusive way, my method and media are always working to discover ways to combine the techniques, technology and trends of contemporary art with the scope and structure of classical forms. My artistic mission is to energize the balance and intricacy of the great traditions with the vibe and dynamic of what is happening now.
I have already produced a large catalogue of work, and much of it is accessible here on this site. Feel free to browse and listen. I hope you find experiences here to enjoy.
