ARTIST’S STATEMENT
Through a comprehensive study of human emotion and energy, my work conveys the complex interconnected systems of life. Circular shapes combine with unexpected colour and pattern, heavy layering, and collage, attempting to achieve balance akin to self-realization. This push and pull of predictability and chaos lead to a final piece that viewers can interpret according to their own personal state of consciousness.
