Artist Statement
I am a studio artist who works in whatever media best convey my thoughts and feelings in compelling ways. My sculptures, paintings, prints, videos, and graphics reflect my quest to visually express myself and invest my work with aesthetic experiences worthy of exploration. Whether making intimate statements or theatrical installations, the essence of my work lies in the responses from viewers it elicits. Creating work through an interplay of design, technique, and narrative voice describes my ambition. Engaging viewers with the abstract, the symbolic, the beautiful, or the strangeness of those compositional elements plays an essential role in determining the focus of a piece and how I envision its impact.
