Historical, literary and personal narratives are at the core of my art practice. Researching these narratives, I explore the conflicting sides of human experience such as entrapment and freedom, power and submission, and transience and permanence. For me, these concepts are best expressed by working on paper. Monotypes, in particular, allow for the unexpected and spontaneous results that I look for in expressing these ideas.
