Artist Statement

The art that I make is primarily 2D. I focus a great amount of my work on digital and film photography. I have been interested in photography for the past 10 years, however recently I have been experimenting with other materials. For a long time I have also been interested in sewing. My specialty is making pocket books. Another thing I love to make is duct tape wallets. My wallets consist of snaps, buttons and zippers. I have also been known to use fabric along with tape. I enjoy the juxtaposition of materials. I once made a dress out of silk and duct tape. I enjoy experimenting with materials and I am excited to enter a new phase in my art and begin using new materials.

studio exploration final project

I have never worked with video before but for some reason I really wanted to use it for this project. Unfortunately I do not have a great camera with video so this was the best quality I could get. The studio explorations project was about space. I chose to explore the literal space around me. I video taped things that surround me everyday.
