Meet the Artists

As an artist, I believe we can understand the human impact on our environment through personal stories of living in diverse landscapes. To achieve this, I use my own experiences, encounters, history, and personal imagery as visual autobiography. This includes examining my memory in relation to specific locations, acting as protagonist in weather-altered terrains, and investigating overlooked aspects of human/animal interactions. In exploring these topics, I have produced creative research projects using graphite drawing, oil painting, printmaking, and sculptural installation. My primary research interests include human-induced environmental changes as they relate to location, the examination of the natural world through visual art, and the sampling from historical artworks, techniques, and subjects through a contemporary lens.
