GO INTO THE UNKNOWN

IMG_9082.JPG

art reminds us that we have a soul.

I strive to bring light into the darkness. By dancing with my shadow, I face whatever demons I find and embrace them — seeing their humanity. Though my art is personal, the themes are universal. 

Often pitting man against self, I examine the idea that every hero’s journey is ultimately a journey of self-discovery and rebirth. In a time when the world is attached to all that glitters, my work is designed to break the audience free from the limits of a one-dimensional perspective — holding up a two-way mirror.

Creating something new means breaking down the barrier between the witness and what is witnessed, the viewer and the artist, transcending limitations — offering an experience of intimacy with the characters on the screen, then, hopefully with a deeper level of what connects us. By subverting expectations, I aim to discover a new hero…with you. The fun is in the seeking.
