Abstract
My work involves ongoing research into historical and mythological narratives and ecological
events that shape and change the world in unforeseeable ways. This unfolding exploration bleeds
into my making, often in irrational ways. Through the use of a multitude of symbols and abstract
narratives I investigate the possibility of a continuous shifting relationship to ourselves and our
surroundings. I consider this perspective through the exploration of such tropes as technological
devices, ritual, trance music, enigmatic sculptures, costumes, and metamorphic landscapes.
These elements are seen in my multi-channel video's, soundscapes, and sculptural components
of my ongoing installation work.
