ARTIST STATEMENT

“Longing leads me. To not think. To allow what emerges to remain unidentified. To ask nothing. To demand nothing. To allow it to have its own reality. It is simply enough for me to reveal something that yearns to stand by itself and exist in its own right.”

The act of creating is a call and response to a universe within that frees me to see, with a renewed perspective, the world and myself. Reclaiming my identity all at once and knowing who I truly am is a gift that transcends the past, present, and future.

My expression is rooted in the history of salvation, intuitively expressing my soul in communion with mystery. Working with the unknown, drawing from life and memory, I invite the viewer to consider the unnamed beyond words, to arouse the obscure, to arouse love: the force that unites us all.

Through my work, I invite and encourage others to explore their own creative lives to honor the essence of being human.
