Artist Statement:
I am driven to find beauty in the mundane and thrive in exploring what goes unnoticed by many. A sundial relies on the movement of the Earth around the sun to simply show the time of day. The wind pushing on each strand of grass in a field to create a wave of movement is visual evidence of the wind. As a part of my creative process, I decipher these events, by determining the instances that lead up to that specific moment or natural phenomena; the inner workings of daily life. I attempt to create visual representations of these experiences in my work to better understand these seemingly simple experiences
