Art is the lens through which I see the world. It shapes my understanding of history, helps me to stay anchored in the present, and allows me to project into the future. My personal practice is constantly shifting and evolving, agnostic to material or medium, but always in search of a feeling. I’m searching to be moved by an image, an object or an experience; to channel the energy of an idea or a vision so directly that it animates the body. My personal studio practice is about finding that energy for myself, but also about ways to work with groups and organizations and help them recognize, and take command of their own creative energy. I believe that everyone has the capacity to create art, and that when we make or experience art together in whatever form, we have the collective capacity to create entirely new realities.
