I made ‘eggshell’ to know myself better. This stop-motion animation is composed of paper cutouts, paint gestures on plastic and sculptures made from cereal boxes and other detritus.

My work is about compartmentalization, about being an artist or dreamer amid the rigid formal tenets of churches and schools. I make imagery from anxious childhood moments. Feeling scared at night, covers pulled overhead. Trapped between powerful authority figures and propelled down an accepted path of behavior and belief. I make artwork about bullies, hero worship, religious fervor, and yearning.
