Artist Q&A
Q: What drives you to create?
A: My continued desire to understand the magic of our world.
Q: What’s something that has emerged in your work recently?
A: More and more lately, I’ve been creating work that tells my own story. I think it’s important to use my art to speak to the truth of my experience.
Q: How do you think art transforms people or environments?
A: In many ways, we live in a culture of restraint – I think art creates space where people are allowed to feel the full range of the human experience.
