My artwork focuses on portraying the latent, unspoken, or ‘obscene’ aspects of our society. I tend to gravitate towards these kinds of private or personal experiences that we would otherwise try to hide from others out of stigma or fear of judgment. Experiences like moments of embarrassment, boredom, anxiety, shame, and loneliness. My overall intention with this is to destigmatize these experiences to encourage a more mutually respective way of looking at others. And I do this by contrasting these heavy topics with highly saturated colors and cartoonishly exaggerated, expressive figures.
