Artist Statement
Influenced by Ursula Le Guin’s “The Carrier Bag Theory of Fiction”, my work is a carrier bag of everything I have collected that affirms my presence. Inside this bag there are pieces of evidence including objects, images, text and information which reconstruct reality throughout a personal perspective. I like objects but I’m primarily a painter. So I paint on everything.
In doing so, I build connections with the world, and explore the absurdity, struggle and humor in life through my work.
