Artist Statement

In my current practice, I lean into exploring form and figuration positioned in settings that imbue transience, often with whimsical psychological underpinnings. My process is guided by intuition that leaves room for expressive mark making that result in environments where energetic scrawls intertwine with the tangible and abstract, creating immersive and perhaps surreal experiences. Leaving remnants of unattached lines and debris to archive impermanence offers paradox in the face of movement within the still image. In all forms of my practice, I thrive playing in liminal spaces that liberate the viewer from more constrained structures. Chaos is a spirited character here, where the representational emerges and shifts, settling as frozen layered moments of dreamy flotsam and jetsam, in and around the human body.
