Artist Statement
Art is a way to make sense of the world. I draw inspiration from songs and poetry and translate them into a three-dimensional form. These forms are tied to reality and speak to underlying associations. These associations can be translated into a multitude of different representations.
Take what you will and persevere.
For those wanting more, here are the lines of relevance. The alter, the wish, and the shield all cross at the point of hope. This is what I aspire to bring to the world.
