Artist Statement
In the world we live in, people constantly try to highlight our differences, corporations, governments, hate groups, they all try to show the things that divide us. I’m looking to find ways to bring people together through my art, using music and sculpture. Using both my own and the experiences of others I create sound pieces to tell our stories. Then I use the sound pieces as my muse to create other work in the hope that our shared experiences can bring people together.
