Artist Statement

I make art for the same reason I microwave fish in the office breakroom. Causing disgust. Making your face scrunch up in revulsion. Maybe you’ll cry a little, and I will extend my tongue, lizard like, to collect your tears. Inspired by German post war expressionism - artists of the era had to sit with the complicity and complacency that must come with industrialized atrocity. I aim to use found and reclaimed objects in my work because the art supply industries are impacted by the same supply chain issues as fast fashion – this is silly, because we already have everything we need, and we’re throwing it away in the trash.
