What themes or subjects are you currently addressing in your work?

Nature, Female, Human.
 

What materials do you work with?

What is challenging your practice right now?

Rationalizing the value of a fossil fueled metaphor (video) in the face of ecological crisis.
 

What artist or work of art do you find yourself returning to and why?
