"My ambition is to undermine both the objectivity that individuals bring to the art experience along with the creation of heightened states of self-awareness. Central to my practice is the production of experiences that are activated by my primary artistic tool, light; I scavenge through remnants of salvaged cultural iconography, language and mythology to create hybrid signifiers based on divergent cultural constructs. They transform temporal experiences into singular moments of revelation and enlightenment."
