              Most of what I do carries a theme of social engagement and intervention performance. Breaking through social norms or expectations of social interaction, ignites my curiosity and informs my art practice. Once I make an assumption on my social environment’s expectation, I then decide what medium will best equipped me for my intervention or disruption of that social environment. In my line of art practice the idea always comes before the medium. My work is best recognized by subject matter not medium. I utilize many different mediums with inter-disciplinary tendencies. I have integrated the mediums of sculpture, painting, photography, video, website design, internet social networks, creative writing and performance. I proudly label myself as a conceptual artist that finds great pleasure in the process of providing a narrative for the viewer.
