Artist Statement:
My art is a cynical reaction to the branded business of corporate art. In essence, my life is my art. How it manifests can be a poem or a painting; or how I dance, or what I do next. From sailing around the world to having children, philosophically, all is art. I would describe my methods as eclectic. Playing on subjective emotive and intellectual themes that have inspired them. Whereby, my different styles reflect different themes, different emotions on how I approach and analyze the world; to be able to conduct my life as an artist.
This is not navel gaze but a method to balance my intellectual anarchism to the inconsistent hypocrisy of an immoral world restricted by political idealism, and as an enlightenment to alternative realities.
