ARTIST’S STATEMENT
Rooted in observation, my use of figuration is an attempt to record the various aspects of life I find myself a party to: who the people I meet might be, how the places in which I exist operate, and the ways in which these two necessarily interact. I'm also interested in visual languages and how they facilitate or frustrate the relationship between artist and audience.
