Artist Statement:
I’m concerned with questions that involve time, space, life and death. My research encompasses psychology, metaphysics and quantum mechanics. I often create geometric structures that are references to portals, which represent a gateway into parallel universes. My art plays with void versus solid, structure versus chaos, as well as illusion and scale, in hopes to give the observer a different perspective of the whole in relation to the self.
