STATEMENT
While typically digital or electronic in nature, my work involves the identification and activation of the inherent elements of the media, which stands to best serve my chosen message. The role of my art is twofold: It strives to clarify the very definition of art while concurrently utilizing the fundamental properties of the media to construct idea systems. These idea systems are designed to be thought through, instead of thought of, and ultimately call into question some typical (albeit, unacceptable) socio-political situation or structure (malady).
