Drawing from varied sources such as architecture, history, science, agriculture and religion, my work explores the links between biology and culture, the present and the past, the personal and the universal. My principal strategies are, transforming common objects into other recognizable objects and juxtaposing disparate materials and images. In the process, popular dichotomies are recognized and then collapsed into multifaceted wholes.
The most recent work tackles the dialectic between science and religion. Their relationship has been more or less contentious since the advent of modern science. In the United States, the rift between the understanding of science and religious dogma is ever widening adversely affecting the political, educational, and medical systems. An exploration of the history and connections of the two seems more vital than ever.
