I am interested in feelings that are buried in the subconscious. The way an emotion can be read through a gesture or an object. My work varies from intensely emotional subject matter to absolute absurdity. Playing with the idea that as humans we tend to read into everything, searching for meaning. The humorous juxtaposition of man made vs. nature and the twisting of what is real, fascinates me. And as I evolve as an artist the true meaning behind people in everyday life and what lies beneath the surface is begining to show itself to me through my travels and experiences..We are all human and yet somehow have been broken up into a mosaic of differences with steep walls seperating us. This is what I believe will be my life long problem, attempting to deconstuct all of the walls we have built in between one another,.through my artwork.
