Artist Statement

I engage directly with my immediate environment through explorations of intimacy, and how people interact with one another in public and private spaces. I am fueled by curiosity of the human experience. Through depictions of everyday life my practice takes a less clinical approach to documenting the world around us. My work invites connection by invoking common experiences and memory through visual cues and colour.
