My work discusses the body and how its form can have intense emotional effects on mentality and identity. The focus of my pieces reflects my own experiences within a body, as well as how an outside perspective can influence us to present in different ways. Additionally, my paintings examine the state of politics and culture, and its impact on our views of independent expression. I find it important to highlight these subjects in a bold manner, and I choose to do this by depicting anatomy as its own environment. Through this, bright color palettes are used to highlight the prominent emotional connection of anatomy to personal autonomy and perspective.
