“I feel my body of work is just getting started. After some time away from the creative process, it is great to go back to basics. My work is trying to question what is the form (and body) and what is its place in the world. Coming from a biracial background, there have been and still are many contradictions as to where everything “fits.” By questioning why the populace feels the need to be like sheep, I hope I can make them actually think and question their own place on this Earth.”
