My art is centered on my understanding of the complex relationship

centricism that has led us to become the species most capable of

between nature and human culture. I use my art practice to explore

altering the world and the most conscious of that ability. In my work,

contemporary and historical aspects of what I see as an oppressive

this need for justification has led me to question the uniqueness of

relationship between humanity and the natural world. I am interested

our role on this planet. Through this I seek to bring attention to the

in creating little worlds that mimic the oppressive aspects of our

fact that, at the bottom of it all, we are just another species living on

world. I need to justify human existence to the historical anthropo-

this planet.
