I’m fascinated with cellular structures and how they relate to the sum of all life. The interplay of how things work is so amazing with its underlying structure and the opportunities for mystery. My work reflects these layers, history and questions the unknown. Discovering our existence carries depth and illumination and we support the life forms as we change to accommodate our similarities and differences. A reflection of how we are seen by others reflects our unique oneness and mirrors a universal wholeness.
I am currently working on the body of work for my thesis MFA
in printmaking at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, CA. The thesis
is based on my interpretation of "Rewiring the Brain" based on my brain injury
acquired in 2009.
