"Many of the objects in my paintings have symbolic meanings: eggs, pomegranates, apples, fish and jars. Those symbolic meanings (life, creativity, knowledge, abundance, transformation, family history) resonate: people like to make connections, to see meaning and stories in things. Some of these things are designed for contemplation: a Chinese ginger jar holds the past and the future in it, a symbol on a plate showing a single fish means 'all' or 'whole'. In some way, however, all of the objects speak to the viewer, triggering a narrative which is already present in an elemental way inside that person."
