Artist Statement:
Using the spirit of printmaking, I examine the distinctions between ritual and habit through an exploration of how marks are made. When thinking about how “practice makes perfect”, a few of my habits become more evident. As such, using a variety of artistic mediums, I have tried to reimagine new ways of cataloguing my experiences. Through creating works of art aimed at the capacities of journalism, memory, and play, I seek to expose my own relationship to success, failure, and reward as well as offer an apology to my participation in some of the injustices of modernism .*
