My work explores the idea of ‘escaping nature’, the struggle between the need to distance ourselves from our animalistic, primitive nature, or dominate it, and the inherent desire for contact with it. We are members of the animal kingdom, yet we constantly quest to deny it and separate ourselves from nature.

I look for instinctual narrative, for honest observation, without ever claiming to understand.
