My work serves as visual comedy, or a form of concrete poetry, and can mostly be credited to a failed attempt at mastering the English language. For me, rhyme, homonyms, puns, and euphemisms are more historically vital discoveries than fire. Although I interject social satire and politics into my work at times, my main focus involves stretching language, and utilizing wit as a true medium, alongside graphite, cotton balls, and colored pencil.
