Artist Statement:

As a child, I loved traveling in the back seat of my parents' car. On long drives, I would stare out the window, gazing into the wild and unknown world outside and think, "On the other side of this glass, things are happening, people are living." I would dream about where I would find myself down the road, where my destiny would lead me.  The works that I create are based on this type of observation. 

The artworks selected for this exhibit are ruminations on the past, present and future. I have been inspired by drawing connections between my own experiences and the lives of my father and grandfather, both individuals whose trade led to a certain career. I hope to create a dialogue between labor and artistry.
