Artist Statement

My body of work focuses on creating narratives from arrangements of objects. In my drawing and painting background, I use arrangements to dissect my identity and metaphorically respond to modern living conditions, conveyed in hyperrealistic aesthetics. My sculptural work is more conceptually active and uses object symbolism, intervention, and documentation to confront uneasy modern conditions seeded in objects and practices of daily life, often through themes of commercialism, labor, digital media and technological advancement.
