Artist Statement
My work lies in the same bedroom as the psychedelic and camp
aesthetic that promotes confusion while postulating equality.
Along with it lie drug folklore, love, occult conspiracies, and
cultural phenomena. It is as if the work were Fox Mulder from
the popular FOX network show The X-Files as an angst-ridden
teenager sitting in a bedroom filled with bong smoke, Christmas
lights, psychedelic posters, and succulent plants, with odd
ceramic sculptures littering the windowsill, who is trying to
impress his partner, Dana Scully, by playing Pink Floyd’s Dark
Side of the Moon while the M.G.M. production of The Wizard of Oz
runs in the background.
