ARTIST’S STATEMENT
I love expressing my anxieties and neuroses through the lens of horror. Through printmaking, comics, and animation I explore themes of mental illness and suicidal ideation, death, human nature, existentialism, obsession, and friendship. These are things I grapple with as a person and seek to understand as an artist.
