Kings and Queen, 2021

My work looks at the way in which our lives overlap with nature. In some cases encroaches on nature. Nature is a mirror to our internal struggles and can assist us in processing our self awareness. I use birds in my work as sub-conscience element. They are messengers and guides. Reminders that we are not alone in these times of social isolation and inward reflection.
