DIRECTORS STATEMENT

I utilize historical references through film to portray evocative images, elicit social change, and encourage viewers to examine their own perception. My themes are hope: love, change, fear, and inner-happiness. My current body of work employs vibrant colorful film along with dark, shadow-laden canvases to highlight the aforementioned themes. These themes have existed for centuries but differ amongst populations and shift throughout time. I am interested in the subjectivity of human perception. Self-analytical art breeds communication; communication advances morality.
