I am a twin and find myself using my art to process the emotional implications of that and other relationships. My connection with my twin that go past any physiological explanation have made it necessary for me to heighten my understanding of connection not only in a narrow genealogical sense but in a broader more universal one. My art is an attempt to help me understand how I am connected not only to her, but also every person and thing around me. Through this process comes my drawings, a break down of layers of a collected spectrum to search for an identity outside of these connections and investigate an idea of "ontological singularity".
In the process of my work, my art presents itself to me as a series of meditative endeavors into hand of the work and by tapping into this I am able to synthesize disparate emotions and medium into one crystallized work. It is in this meditative state that I am reminded of the true act of my art process and there returns the singular important part of its creation and the basis of my practice.
