Artist Statement

Within my sculptures, I delve into the complex realm of human emotions, exploring the juxtaposition of trauma and fear with elements of joy and amusement. Drawing inspiration from the vivid world of amusement park culture, I strive to encapsulate the multifaceted nature of our existence, where vulnerability intertwines with the pursuit of fun

My work draws inspiration from the colorful and chaotic world of amusement parks, mirroring the rollercoaster of emotions we encounter in our lives. The juxtaposition of dark themes with playful elements serves to confront fear and trauma, encouraging viewers to engage in a conversation about these challenging aspects of human existence.

My sculptures compel viewers to explore their own emotional rollercoaster, provoking self-reflection and dialogue. They represent a bridge between the darkest corners of our minds and the capacity for joy that lies just around the corner. Through ceramic and mixed media, I embark on a profound journey to unearth the beauty in confronting our deepest fears, reminding us that even in darkness, there is space for fun and healing. All set? All clear. Here we go!
