Artist Statement
Concepts
I have worked with a wide range of media such as video and sound installation, animation, sculpture, and computer generated performance. I create a multi-sensory experience and explore the areas where art & science and life & death overlap. I'm interested in how developments in science and it's imaging methods provide a new way of looking at the body, the mind and the start of life itself.
