About
By creating ambiguous narratives, loosely based on personal experience, and observed synchronicities, I try to explore the nature of being, the real and the relationship between fiction and our phaneron. Drawn to the unknown and the uncanny, I rely heavily on instinct and coincidence during the decision-making process that may seem arbitrary, but to me is beautifully systematic. Film, sculpture, drawing and performance are all mediums i use to question myself and the things i come into contact with.
By seeking sincerity in the absurd, and allowing it to permeate the mundane, my work can often be read as both whimsical and tragically heartfelt.
