"My visual vocabulary consists of abstract, organic, biomorphic shapes and forms. I focus on the development, exploration and refinement of these elements. I incorporate these in my animation, creating an audio visual experience where I play with shapes, line, color, light, and sounds changing through time. I explore the first three elements in my drawing, painting and printmaking. Additionally animation allows me to transform the audio-visual experience diachronically – realizing unique aspects which I cannot explore within static media."
