Statement
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.
