My conceptual work is usually an exploration of self in society. Often the focus is on our prejudices, with a hope that by becoming aware of what they are and how we developed them, we can explore their relevance and if they are actually helpful to us. Like most artists, I also sometimes want to create work for purely aesthetic reasons. Who doesn’t like beautiful work on their walls or screens?
