As an artist in a world where humans are bombarded with information and technology, I feel compelled to create works of art that embrace simplicity. Inspired by the human form and its assumed pose in modern culture, I break them down on canvas as minimalist representations of their discriminating parts, defining them atypically via reflective visuals. Because the world presents us with chaos, I offer my art as an opportunity to reset. While growing up in Raleigh, North Carolina, I have watched as my surroundings have evolved into a cultural melting pot, a place where technology is in juxtaposition with the small-town charm that lingers. My work incorporates broad obscure brush strokes and conflicting areas of vivid colors to create a 21st century portrayal of abstract expressionism.
