Wednesday morning beach walk #9-8, 2021

I tell visual stories about everything and nothing in between moments of time that become. My experimental work explores invisible/visible humanness and how we choose to see in-your-face reality. We look at ourselves and look at the street and our alteration of self-awareness becomes mystified. We want to obliterate what we see and want to feel compassion and loss of what to do. My work challenges normative constructions of art, identity and value by connecting our human values in social justice community building. My work weaves observations around the human condition. My images present narratives of time, place and of existence. Exploring issues of subject and identity in my series of homelessness/drug addiction, my images present the roles we take and are given in what is in front of us. What I feel is numb and grief and am compelled to tell these stories of our human condition. Most importantly wherever I have lived, this is what is in front me. Environmental surroundings change but this state of human condition remains the same. My portrayals serve as a forum of a deep sense of loss, time and place. We seem to connect with this deep sense of loss. By portraying these untold visual stories even more graphically, the inevitable downside presents a narrative of time, place and existence for me.
