Gallery One - "Perceptions of Value"

This Body of work deals with the subject of value by considering the system of values that we bestow upon familiar objects and possessions. I am interested in how the perception of an object is altered by its material, situation, or scale, and by making ironic and playful changes to these properties I encourage the viewer to question the value of the object.

Gallery 2 - "Headlong Into the Darkness"

As children we are indulged in an altered sense of reality where the laws of science and nature are suspended. Fantasy and make believe flourish at a time when we are immersed in a reality enhanced by fairytales and imaginative play. The unique ability of children to believe without doubt nourishes the imagination and gives rise to elaborate fantasys. As a result we spend childhood tip-toeing along the boundary between fantasy and reality with excited anticipation but equally foreboding suspicion.
