My work explores psychological landscapes through the balance of abstraction and figuration. I draw from myth, religion, shame, personal narrative, that one thing I read that one time, Bible studies, sex, blasphemy, the end and beginning of the world, god I’m going crazy in my studio, speculative fiction, and mythologies both real and imagined. Using intuitive forms, I navigate these themes to construct a personal mythology that reflects on contemporary conditions.
