Artist’s Statement
Many of my works explore the interaction between perception and reality, as well as my tendency for disassociation in the absence of feeling connected to the outside world. The collage piece And The World Is Drawn speaks to a love for nature and connection, but also a desire to retreat to the comfort of the inner world, demonstrating the existing reflection between the two. (lyrics referenced from the song Muzzle by The Smashing Pumpkins)
