Statement
Curiosity lurks within the human condition. I believe it should be nurtured, engaged, at any age. I see it as the cornerstone for problem-solving, for understanding each other and situations, for building a better future. My intention as an artist is to engage that curiosity we sometimes forget still stirs in us, to offer a celebration of what we have in common, to remind us that we are all in this together...
