Painting & Illustration

Artist statement

I work at the intersection between art and design. In particular, my practice manipulates the line between fashion, costume, wearable sculpture, industrial design, and graphic design. I think of my diverse interests as addressing a need for communication and expression, while also solving practical problems of how art can be integrated into everyday life. The natural shapes formed by animals and plants are repeating themes across these materialities. I like to defy conventions, and regularly challenge myself to incorporate new techniques and skills in order to do so. Performance art and the documentation process has also formed an important narrative.
