Medusa Waterspout Artwork

Inspired by the recent hurricanes and spate of tornadoes that hit Florida and the southeastern US, Medusa Waterspout is a personification of nature, a form of animism, where nature is both a destructive and regenerative force (a cycle of birth, death and rebirth) which are common themes I explore in my work. The visceral experience of witnessing something that is both terrifying and beautiful is reflected in my use of materials which is direct, expressive and yet, descriptive — and like, Leonardo, a byproduct of passionate study and love of nature.
