Anywhere but Here
Anywhere but here

ARTIST STATEMENT
This body of work titled “ Anywhere but here” is about a personal journey. I’m compelled to be honest with myself and inevitably through the work. My own life is reflected within this process. Layers represent memory and nostalgic images express that which I wish to relive. Desire to be somewhere else, not choosing to live in the moment, then deciding to be present.
I have always been intrigued by memories and how they affect one's life In the present moment. An image can capture so many emotions. I want to communicate with the viewer that I have created a space for them to have their personal moment with my work. This is how I connect through my creative process that is my personal journey.
