Artist Statement
My work is rooted in an environmental consciousness that derives from my concern for the Earth's rapidly declining health. I use it to highlight the misuse and abuse that we inflict on the natural world. My forms are influenced by domestic and industrial objects that I experience in my daily life that are indicative of eco-friendly tools and warning symbols. I marry my earthen objects with industrial surplus. The mixed media speaks to the complex relationship that humanity has with nature.
