Entranced by the delicate interplay between the impossible and the infinite in painting and hair, through the lawlessness of water-based media on canvas, paper, or hair. Food, flora, motion, and humans are deeply rooted in the continuation of the language of tradition of visual conversation, seeking eternity, through all states of time.

Apocalypse and salvation, through seemingly familiar images, are reimagined, always asking the question: What will be the outcome of our human tradition of modifying and controlling the bodies of one another, the food that they eat, the balance of flora around us? The suggested answer by the artist can be different in every work, the outcome can be the globalization of sight, 1.5 meter tall celery, pines pining for humans that are self inflicting harm.

Actual space is always left in work: self sufficient plants that have adapted to light themselves grow in a space, that of the material in which they were constructed on, allowing the viewer to project their own world, to create, and maybe answer their own questions .
