I spend a majority of my practice exploring topics of philosophy, social topics, history, and the natural world. My process draws heavily from my turbulent background as well as from the bits of relief and hope found on my quest for Truth.
Whatever that means.
My goal is to generate honest conversation around established social systems, and spark meaningful reflection in the observer. This motivation keeps me continuing to learn new ways of making, and use them as tools for change.
Art is a way for us to dig deeper than language and belief structures, and view concepts from our very core. I think that it is time to use that to reflect on our country's last century of development, and come to terms with where we are and how we got here.
Together, we can find solutions.
