I have been a visual artist for all of my life, growing up with a natural inclination towards visual expression, paired with a love for mythology and nature. These ancient stories and symbols have manifested in lifelong experiences that helped bare the keys in my pursuit to understanding human experience. Having a practice that constantly beckons the call to develop and grow or risk arrested development has pushed me both to live beyond society's dichotomous expectations and understand the multitude of reasons that many other people must do the same.

Artist Statement

Our bodies are the vessel for how we experience the world, and the world has an ever growing fracture from the absence of love. Where love has recessed, systems of oppression take hold, diminishing humanity down to the bodies that carry us through this existence. Living under these measures, we are all at odds within our very selves, with our fellow people, and with our home planet. This is because Love needs a space to manifest, a vessel to carry its truth in the forms of empathy and true equality. Love needs to grow from the decay of hatred. Love needs to heal fear. Loves needs the full participation of people to be felt, given and known. Love needs all bodies to be. — Artemis Xenakis
