Artist Statement:
My interest as an artist is
related to how people look
back into his or her past to
retrieve memories of certain
situations. Depending on the
situation the individual has
experienced can drastically
alter the shape of a person’s
memory and furthermore, a
person’s identity. As a
painter and draftsman, I
represent particular memory
situations from my own life.
Some or all of the figures are
partially concealed by a vale
or mask. By concealing the
identity of an individual
takes away the personal
narrative and identity
attached to the represented
individual or individuals. My
artwork is meant to represent
each individual or group of
individuals in a memory
fragment that has been shifted
and altered by time and
situation. ...
