About

Artist Statement:
I create art as a visual and emotional interpretation of my life. A chronicle of the sights and sounds of the every day: people, places, things, and knowledge gained. Life is never limited; neither is my medium.
My works are a marriage of two disciplines- art & science. During my pre-med studies, I discovered a love of chemistry and quickly found ways of using the experiments in artistic ways. Crystallization, oxidation, hydrophobic effect, and electrical conductivity are manipulated to create works that are as much conceptualism as they are forces of nature.
