ARTIST STATEMENT
And so I find myself here; halfway between birth, and death.
In this state of liminality, my interior world collides with the exterior.
Past childhood traumas, once safely tucked away, return unbidden.
Meanwhile, the future stretches ahead of us all; an ephemeral endurance of uncertainty, and unravelling.
Together, they hover silently in the shadows, a merged force of reckoning, reproachfully casting its pall over the mundanity of my everyday.
This uncanny articulation of the inexpressible, is born of my desire to invoke that which is beyond reach, concealed within the interstices of perception.
