statement

As humans, we have a inherent desire to create meaning in our lives. We mean to decorate the things that we touch with our fingerprints, as much as we consciously leave our footprints along the paths we choose to take.

As an artist, I am continually captivated by impressions, connections, and beauty in imperfection. The majority of my work addresses the idea that every living person has an innate capability to feel. Some choose to dismiss it. Others accentuate it, understand it, rely on it, admit it, or express it. I aim to propose feeling by creating a dialogue between absence, presence, and personal history.

Existence is beautiful, and it is delicate. The gentle, intangible silence that exists beneath the stresses, pressures, and negativity of the world is what I aim to portray in my work. A pause. I try to get inside that pause and use it to express a type of beauty that no one remembers ever noticing before.
