Art Statement
I am a multidisciplinary intuitive, semi-abstract artist working across painting, assemblage, and digital technologies to explore animal conservation, fragmentation, and humanity’s evolving relationship with nature, technology, and one another. My work responds to the rise of anthropocentrism, the irreversible effects of climate change, and the consequences of human behavior on global ecosystems.
Rooted in automatism, my process is spontaneous and process-driven. I interpret what I feel and observe, building layered compositions from random markings, repetition, discarded materials, textiles, paint, glass, symbols, and digital elements. Repetition becomes both meditative and cathartic—echoing cycles of destruction and renewal—while unpredictability guides the work as a space where intuition, disruption, resilience, and meaning coexist.
''And it's in that place of feeling the Earth's injuries, and feeling it with each other-that the alchemy emerges. It's in the cauldron of sharing our grief with our community, of gazing at it together and not looking away, that the heartbreak turns to hope. Hope, an ability to work for something because it is good, not just because it stands a chance to succeed. We struggle between two contrasting views of humanity: one driving to a technological endgame of artificially enhanced humans, the other enabling a sustainable future arising from our intrinsic connectedness with each other and the natural world." |
