As an artist, I have always gravitated progressively towards my connection to my cultural and social environment and the natural landscape that surrounds me. There is beauty and decay in nature and correlate to my imagery and creativity. My inspiration comes from natural seascapes which are often interlaced with coded meaning to reference as metaphors using ideas of gender and sexuality. I am interested in capturing the process of beauty and the concept of the eventual dissolution of things. Basically, the impermanence of the inevitable, and the essence of ephemeral. My art is heavily infused with aquatic backgrounds loaded with symbolic references which are personal to me and essentially relevant to my art making process.
