My work often explores dichotomies of the natural world (such as life and death, the natural and artificial, damaging and healing, the beautiful and horrific), ways in which their boundaries are transgressed, and how we relate to these on a personal and visceral level. Significant themes in my work include sensuality and perception, physiology, identity, and the narrative body. Repetition and portraiture are frequently featured in my art, executed through several mediums including drawing, painting, printmaking, and collage. My works are assemblages of representative and abstract imagery, marrying hardness and delicacy, violence with quietness. It is this oscillation between contradictory states that draws me and inspires my practice.
In addition to being a driven studio artist, I am also devoted to art education, arts accessibility, and the pursuit of learning the art of tattooing. Hence, I pursue a broad range of techniques and mediums to continue to develop into as well-rounded an artist as possible.
