STATEMENT
My work explores abstract landscapes and structures inspired by nature, alternate realities, and personal interior spaces. I am interested in creating imagined worlds where shape, color, and pattern combine to become living abstract systems. The beauty of rock formations, plant life, the sky at sunset, clouds, meditative spaces, and altered states of consciousness informs my practice.
