I create narratives about defilement and psychological damage. My figures are mutilated, defective, confrontational, perversely hyper-sexualized, and tormented by an unattainable need for connection. The works depict moments of crisis upon the realization of the human capacity for violence and the discovery of evil that hides behind normality. My images provide a space in which to ruminate on this dark side of human nature while posing the question of how to retain integrity and dignity in the face of trauma.
