Haystacks
Contemporary American poetics has made me think and see painting the way i do. When these poems are talked about i am inspired to create paintings that might do the same. That might talk about the politics of production. An uneasy eye. Mixing the found with the personal poetic. Snarky copies of the dominant, alienation, lyric skepticism- to name a few of the things Rae Armantrout does that inspire me.

When i hear the Irish fiddles of this particular poetry podcast I feel as though i am getting closer to honesty. I hope my art work is gearing up for flight like these poems. I want my accrual of paintings to become audible in the ways described here.
