Art to me is the car that moves us towards discovering the reason for existence, never quite getting to that destination. It is a search for the understanding of ourselves. Through many forms of media and materials I have explored what it means to be alive. I have tried to externalize what exists inside me. This is not for others to see but for me to learn. I believe an imagination is not making things up out of nothing. It is a function of how our minds and souls process the world around us. My animation, writing, sculpture, and filmmaking have all been tools for self-discovery.  The surreal and the monstrous have a special place in my heart. I believe we are more of what we do not see than we are of what we do see. By seeking out the monstrous we begin to see ourselves for what we really are. I will continue to use a variety of methods to try and access what lives inside me
