“I am working with the belief that ‘art for art’s sake’ is a well intentioned but weak concept... that on the contrary, every form of art has a very specific and valuable role in society and evolved to fulfill this purpose.
For myself, I see the need and possibility of using visual media to take
direct action in society.
I use absolute subjectivity to speak objectively, my very personal experiences used as material for dialogs on global issues, and all of this with the faith, that like an algebraic equation, changing one variable, no matter how small, will invariably change the entire equation, no matter
how large. Perhaps my art then is about the importance and power of
the individual in an increasingly homogeneous world.”
