Artists’s Statement

My work focuses on three main ideas: Duality, Opposition, and Instinct. With Duality and Opposition, I explore the ideas of double meanings and hostile or contrary conditions. With the idea of Instinct comes the actual creation process and the idea of behaviors below the conscious level. With my on going "To Be Human" series I am using a large vocabulary of imagery to show emotional and physical aspects of what it is to be human. In my series I use a wide variety of mediums such as Intaglio, Lithography, Digital prints, and Photography to express these concepts.
