Drawing and Painting

“Exploring the absurdity of limitation and the joy in play and possibility, I create works that reflect the transformative experiences of the human body. Focusing on metamorphic processes of birth, growth, degeneration, and death, my works bring forth an appreciation of all aspects of a corporeal existence.”
