Personal Statement: As a visual artist, I begin my exploration within the forest - it is there I find a primal urge that releases imagery deeply rooted in Prehistoric Art. Through this search I make an immediate connection to the body, arriving at the womb. The womb not only becomes the center foundation from which my work is developed, it holds as a universal symbol connecting the self and the outside world.

Living in an urban environment, nature is often absent. By constructing installations that bring a reflection of natural spaces to sterile and industrial atmospheres, I try to find a balance between the two. Most importantly, by recreating nature within its void, I reflect on my unnerving concern with over-development. It is here I hope to bring a consciousness to society, who will in return create change.
