Artist Statement

I employ a wide range of media, including video animation, painting, and sculpture, to examine the relationship of the performative body, physical form, and the struggles of authenticity. Through a process grounded in experimentation and narrative, I break down and reassemble structures that explore craftsmanship and object-making. The final constructs reference art history, historical artifacts, and storytelling. They are subtle assemblages that stress the evidence of mark-making, handwork, transparency, performance, and time.
