Statement

My mother worked at Walmart for a number of years. She told me stories of fistfights that broke out at every Black Friday sale in November. Seemingly normal, upstanding citizens were carted off to jail for battering one another over a discounted vacuum cleaner or CD player. These stories fascinated me and, in a way, encapsulate what I attempt to capture.

My work draws from various sources such as consumerism, mythology, meteorology, religion and analytical psychology. I'm interested in depicting how divergent fields like these collide, converge and entangle to form new biomorphic beings and swirling mental landscapes.
