Artist's statement:  

 

I am predominately interested in language not as a conveyor of meaning but as artifact and assemblage. What is the visual utterance of a singular letter separate from its cage of words? How does the letter as object cohabitate with other non-human concepts and objects such as color, nature, the animal? In what ways do the para-linguistic conversations formed by these juxtapositions open doors to new ways of worldly and fleshy relating?
