My work focuses on exploring the human figure both physically and internally and their relation to one another. I create my work in many formats including oil acrylic and watercolor on canvas, acid on copper, and animation. I prefer to work at a large scale as this allows my own body to be part of the art making process. My inspirations vary from the struggle between individuals , society and culture, to more internal issues exploring the body's role and symbolism in the present, in sleep, in death and in its beginnings.
