artist statement

A sense of place can be geographical, interpersonal or spiritual and identifies those characteristics that make a place special or unique. A strong sense of place supports our feelings of personal identity and fosters a sense of authentic human attachment. As we explore unfamiliar and well-known locations physically or psychologically they add color and richness to our lives and broaden how we perceive our world. In my work, I explore and interpret my intimate viewpoints of place.
