Artist Statement:
I have known the lost souls
who haunt this world searching
for life in all the wrongs
places, I was one of them. So
many wondrous people loose
their purity to exploitation,
and hang a price“ tag on their
bodies and souls; these are
the subjects who populate my
works.
Those who stray into
self-destruction seek basic
needs: love, acceptance,
happiness, and find it in
dangerous places, as well as
those who have found it in
their own souls. I introduce
the plasticity of those who
allow the world to enslave
them, and I show the beauty in
those who allow themselves to
be set free. I try to use my
medium to undermine
preconceptions, exposing a
society that praises wealth,
possessions, and its own
predetermined standards of
beauty, at any cost....
