ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Kenosis is the 'self-emptying' of one's own will, the "ethic of sacrifice," to make oneself nothing in the pursuit of something. Freed from its ancient Christian context, the concept becomes a metaphor for the human condition—for that which we want so badly we're willing to destroy ourselves getting; for hubris and its antidote; for our universal striving towards fulfillment and happiness. “Find something you love and let it destroy you.” –unknown

SHIPPING AND RETURNS
Delivery Time:

Typically 5-7 business days for domestic shipments, 10-14 business days for international shipments.

My paintings deceive with photorealist illusion to unmask deeper truths of existence, where the beautiful often flirts with the grotesque. Creating an unnerving believability by bringing technical precision to unlikely juxtapositions, I urge the viewer to question familiar assumptions and pierce the surface of what we often take for granted.
