My artistic practice has a
quiet ferocity; a
contained rage. it’s
carefully constructed chaos;
meticulously random. it’s
a series of events that may or may not be conveniently related.
a dry humor, but
incredibly saturated and not funny.
There is a necessity to create inhabitable micro-worlds by whatever means and mediums necessary.
I choose to engage with movement, photography, videography, installation, sound, desire.
I embrace paradox and conflict, crucial to examining our realities.
With a relentless pursuit, I seize everything of interest and hold it for future curation.
