STATEMENT
I make work about the psychological relationships that humans form between themselves, each-other, and the nature that surrounds them. Patterns and habits of various animal species narrate an allegorical context for how humans treat one another. Masks and cyclical forms serve as recurring symbols, and allude to our sense of self-identity; our relationship to death; and the infinite connections we inherent to our earth and to one another. The female form is often featured, and questions societal and biological expectations of maternity, femininity, and sexuality. These themes are represented through a whimsical, and at times, childlike, lens: which acknowledges an inquisitive, yet naïve perspective on darker psychological states.
