The fear of forgetting and being forgotten is practically universal. I am interested in how contemporary communication has altered our memories, social interactions, and psychology. I use the connecting thread of memory by incorporating objects and materials that are imbued with nostalgia or sentimentality. Aesthetic references to memory, degradation, ephemera, and family photographs are common themes in my layered, multi-media works. It is my hope that interactions with my work help to reinforce a physical and emotional connection to each other and the space around us.
