My work exposes the sensuality and the roughness of the animal within us to momentarily extract and disengage us from our social conditioning.

Humorously, or confrontationally, the sculptures question our automated response dictated by apparatuses and assert our corporeal presence in the city as a signifier of mental resistance.

My photography translates portraiture as a relationship in the making between shooter and sitter. These images questions established thought systems, behavioral code and proclaimed virtues that tame the shadows of violence and love as the background of our primordial relationships.
