Artist's Statement

My artwork is an ongoing experiment in the relationship between color and form, using the human figure to create spatial and psychological connections. Each creation explores the dimension between materials and output, forming a connection between the tactile and digital worlds. These visual explorations are the language I know best, transmitting information that relies on reflexes, senses, and emotions that exist outside of any words in the dictionary.
