Artificiality intrigues me. I have been under the conviction that my human experience is dependent on a matrix of rules that individuals and cultures adhere to. Photography was originally intended to be a medium that recorded and depicted an absolute truth. In actuality, photography has had an implemental role in social construction and in the forming of realities, enforcing archetypes.

Photography is my chosen medium because it seduces the viewer into believing in materiality. I am heavily influenced by film, and thus my work tends to be performative while I assimilate a directorial role. I create staged realities of my own, appropriating a surrealist vernacular that shares a forensic aesthetic. These realities are an intersection of psychological time and space that incorporates elements of the grotesque.
