This collection of RECENT paintings and mixed media video installations are representative of my ongoing exploration to decode and deconstruct ancient history and myth in relationship to contemporary mores and narratives.  Composing with singularly detailed fragments, the work is assembled in a modern context, as if pixel by pixel. Despite their apparent architectural structure, they retain their capacity to adapt to new spaces and assume new configurations, operating as a metaphor for a world made of fragments that multiply and connect, not unlike molecules creating living and evermore complex organisms. Moreover, in my personal search for meaning, each work comes together, apart, and together again over time in revised narrative forms - to essentially retell the same ancient human stories for the ages in new ways for a new time.  AK
