What If?
Description
Artist Statement -
Fixed on a portrayal of longing and a passionate desire to journey beyond the restrictive present, my figures embody the emotions of isolation and captivity tempered with the hope of escape. Appearing in a trancelike state of daydream absorbed by fanciful journeys, the figures are propelled into imaginative journeys as well as lives of personal completeness.
Hop on board and take a journey with me! What if? Lets find out!
