People have always been the most exciting subject for me; because it is only natural we associate by comparison, declare emotion within empathy and remind ourselves of our own uncertain identity by looking it straight in the eyes. As a result my work deals a lot with the existentialism of the other and the universal yearnings of the individual, attempting to understand the complexities that make people who they are by searching for those who involve themselves in experiential encounters.
