Artist Statement:
I started making masks a few
years ago as a result of my
fascination with masks as
ritual objects. This interest
continues to grow and evolve
as time goes on. The masks
have become (for me) a
commentary on life and the
human condition. Although my
masks are not wearable and,
therefore, not used in
traditional ways, I hope that
they have the power to
communicate ideas. I
especially like to emphasize
humor, wit and irony in my
pieces and I hope that the
masks are able to speak for
themselves.
