Artist Statement
Conceptually, I am interested in how we consciously and
subconsciously interface with each other and our environments through the
negotiation of systems, structures, and materials that we create as a result of
our fears and desires.
Our daily lives and experiences are constantly mediated in one way or another
from an infinite number of sources, either by our own doing or from someone
else's. These mediations might involve technology, architecture, language,
socio-political systems, fashion, information flow (or lack of it), or any
variation of communication and exchange.
I am drawn to the points where these systems, structures, materials, and
exchanges bump against each other, where things start to break down or contradict
one another, where there are gaps, and where the idealized and controlled do
not line up neatly with the chaotic and the real.
