ARTIST STATEMENT
My work challenges the lines we draw between self and other. Whenever a horizon marks a division, I disrupt it. The result is a series of richly layered, abstracted landscapes. Because I’m also a creative writer, asemic writing often appears in my visual work to represent the stories we tell — both true and false — about who we are and what we mean by “we.” The more we understand, the fewer walls we build.
