“Allegory Nº 4 is part of a new contemporary painting series that is suggestive of natural elements, shadowing connections with color, expression and emotions. These works strive to blur and abstract memories and feelings rather than creative literal interpretations to tell the unfolding story. In some ways, by blending my ideas, the paintings appear to be soft and dreamy in parts of the composition and profoundly sharp in others.”
“'Feeding' is a sculpture inspired by biodegradable burial pods. A burial pod is an egg-shaped pod through which a buried corpse or ashes can provide nutrients to a tree planted above it. The thought of giving life after death and completing the life cycle was quite poetic. 'Feeding' has an artificial maple tree 'growing' from the multi-coloured resin bust, symbolic of this unusual yet compelling burial process.”
"I am drawn to the nude as a symbol of vulnerability and strength, and I am inspired by the way in which the posture of a body can offer information into the psyche of the person in the frame. I use my own body as a model, though I don't see my prints as self portraits but rather a space where one can project their own experience and emotional reality. What comes up for you when you look at this print? "
"When I am with horses, I am a better version of myself... I am not worthless and there's nothing wrong with me. I am not shy, not weak, not empty. When I am riding, no matter how many times I might fall, I have no scars. I am not broken. I am safe. I am myself. Horses are my life... The rest are just details."
"I am the Queen. Though, I am seldom seen. My heart is with the people. My Lord's house is the one with the steeple. Take what you need, as a nation we all bleed. My heart is full, I am the Queen of Romania."
"It was the last time I made her cry. I felt relieved to finally be able to tell her the truth. It made her cry, then I froze her in time. Now every time I look at her I remember…"
"This series aims to look at the relationship between that which is the organic matter of life and that which is constructed by the organic matter of life. Is an iron crane, or a law of ethics any less organic than the human flesh? All matter comes from nature, and all matter is created by organic life."
"When we recognize the beauty and wisdom of Mother Earth, love and connection to God is awakened within us. Don't miss a moment of your precious experience and appreciate all life has to offer."
"This piece is inspired from my life experiences. When hard times arise, you battle through till you reach the other side. You pick yourself up and piece yourself back together. Over time you heal but you only have to scratch the surface to see what lies beneath."
