• Artsy
In my mixed media work, which is a blend of collage and painting, I attempt to reflect and distort the world around me. My method of work involves deconstructing images and reassembling them in a way that creates a new narrative. My work uses abstraction to explore shapes, patterns, repetition, and movement. My pen and ink work and pencil drawings explore the same themes.
