My
work is narrative.
I
layer humor into images that, on closer look, explore alienation and
subjugation. As such, my work mirrors how, in real life, we can fail to see
past appearances to recognize darker circumstances for what they are.
Nonetheless, we endure, navigating desire, expectation and sacrifice. Through
all, we strive to survive and with that there is hope.
Lithography
is the process I choose to create my work. My fundamental aesthetic is based on
the unique quality of line created when drawing with a litho crayon on a stone.
Within the world of printmaking I appreciate the contradiction of the
original multiple. The work is printed from a matrix and subtly unique. This
duality of opposites reinforces my subject matter based on life experiences
that are simultaneously universal and intensely individual.
