    Artist Statement

    I am interested in the ambiguity encountered at the limits of things or the breakdown of the barriers of these things. A Self that begins leaking out into the World, or a World leaking into the Self. Conceptually there are pretty common junctures where these things happen: death, family, religion, love, sex.
