ABOUT THE ARTWORK
My current work focuses on symbolism and communication in the modern digital age; specifically, symbols that have universally changed their meaning and importance across multiple cultures and languages. # (hashtag) was once a tone signaler to end a phone call or data entry; but has since become the single most important tool in organizing the vast amount of information on the internet. Typically, a hashtag is a word or adjective, but it can also represent a state of mind or experience. In this work, food porn pics, maps and dictionary pages make up the background.

Intuitively evolved, emerging artist. My art has advanced through practice, study and patience. I divide my time between two mediums, digital and encaustic collage where often the boundaries intersect in one artistic statement. Layers of imagery, line and pigment are my tools. Time invested in the mediums has been my teacher. My current focus is on communication in the digital media age with particular attention to symbols that have emerged with new meaning and popularity in the common vernacular. Universal symbolism of everyday use contrasted with antiquated printed media portends to the loss of civility and distrust in the current misinformation moment. Using ASCII to Binary conversions of simple phrases layered with color symbolism and phrasing, I tell a contemporary tale of nationalism amid a desensitized public.
