The Ship of Theseus thought experiment is one of the oldest in Western philosophy. With it, we ask - If we replace a ship "bit by bit", at what point is it a new ship?
I am an artist and author living in Mohkinstsis / Calgary, AB. In 2018 I was trained as a peer support worker with the Canadian Mental Health Association, and since then I’ve blended mental health advocacy with my art and writing practice. Some highlights of the past few years include my collaboration with neuroscientists as a part of Branch Out Neurological Foundation charity events, as well as my first international showing in Chicago as a part of the multidisciplinary "SOME PEOPLE"(Every)Body exhibition.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
I like to experiment and explore different mediums. I use art to help me understand myself and the world around me. I'm inspired by philosophy and psychology and have a keen interest in big ideas. I like to make work that is complex visually but with an overall harmony.
