I am increasingly interested in creating landmark installations that transform a space, whether through painted murals, glass, lighting, textiles, mosaic art or any combination of these. I collaborate with designers and architects to maximize impact in public art pieces, ensuring the work fits the space, eventually becoming indispensable and timeless. Much of my artistic career to this point has evolved naturally out of travel, collaborations with foreign artists and diverse communities, while also propelled by my own undying curiosity about the possibility inherent in new and repurposed materials alongside innovative processes and ancient techniques.

The fragmented nature of my work rebels against the prolificity and perfection of factory artists of today. I want to remain challenged by the scale and process in my work, with hands on the process, so that excitement, that newness and passion is ever-present and distilled within the works. Increasingly I also aim to use my platform to elevate themes such as gender and cultural equality and environmental stewardship to the forefront, emblazoning in new monumental works the relentless and inspiring figures that have surmounted the odds and still achieved greatness, lived examples who are setting the bar high for our ever-diverse and changing world.

The stained-glass or mosaic aesthetic present in my work over the last five years has evolved into working with more robust and permanent materials such as ceramic tile and glass in murals. Without trying to recreate Byzantine influence, I instead endeavor to make something fresh and new out of an ancient process. The permanence of mosaic, as well as the material nuances available via textures, transparency and various sheens is weighty, glamorous and offers a depth unrivaled by paint, regardless of the subject being depicted. In my studio work, I aim to conjure the same energy of spontaneity present in the street, complete with textures, layers and complex modes of communication, adapting my designs for textiles, mosaic, neon lighting and more.
