Artist Statement

"As an Artist and Musician who is not afraid to use their voice as an instrument, my work speaks not only for me but for those who do not have the same freedom. I aim to inspire those who have been oppressed to practice self love, utilize their voices and trust in their vision.

My most recognized body of work is emotionally charged and often juxtaposed against geometric based backgrounds. My color palettes are bold and bright although the contrast of “black and white” is referenced throughout various works. Linear patterns bounce throughout my work threading together both past and present day themes of hyphenated American culture, while exploring concepts of self-reflection and social commentaries particularly in response to inequalities and injustices."
