Artist Statement:
My work affixes a subtext narrative to a common object or idea in order to provoke a societal response. This current body of work allows for a commentary on the existing interaction process between the self and the reach of control. My work is subversive in nature, containing deranged visuals and a schizophrenic sense of humour, appropriating from our childhood desires and patterns of thought. The growth of our present status is contingent upon the reach of dominance, the compliancy of others and our desire to submit in order to move forward without effort.
