About us

I make art in an almost utilitarian manner with a bubble of emotion in the center. My lines are course and the process endless. I put things on things, figures within mass collections of undesired objects, My anxieties, my process, my bubble, keep me going, fighting, passionate, forging to find a place where I can exist. I am influenced by almost

everything. Making and watching things be made: The cement factory on my block, retailers folding clothes, artist’s Marlene Dumas, Zak Smith and their complex figures, and the dead-ended art collectives across America. In the same breath of discovery I listen to the music of Britney Spears and Copland, I collect animal remains and antiques, and read from the bibles of David Sedaris and Simone de Beauvoir. I strive to find the balance of nature and man within mythology and storytelling. I use images based in history, both on a personal and educational context surveying as they play off of eachother. I watch in self-gratification as the lines begin to blur between fantasy and reality.
