In both my 2d and 3d work, I try to portray the same thing: The Human Experience. It’s something I am constantly thinking about, and since my art is a visual representation of my mind, of course it will show. My goal isn’t to make things look the way they’re supposed to; everything must have a roughness to it, because every person on earth has their own mind; their own imagination and way of thinking that is different from every other person, but we must all still try to exist together, and that’s a chaotic sort of thing.
I prefer to add some sort of strangeness to all of my pieces, whether that’s too long fingers in a figure drawing, extra folds and creases in a pot, or uncomfortable eye contact by my figures with the viewer. In the fuzzy world of my art, all of this makes perfect sense, but nobody on the outside knows what’s going on, so the viewer has to make up their own stories, like you and I both have to do with our own lives.
