• Artist Statement

  While creating this artwork I attempted to capture the feeling of being forced to fit into a societal label. It's meant to feel incredibly claustrophobic and mildly unsettling. The figure is attempting to cram into a box smaller than themselves, but people aren't meant to be confined to boxes and labels, creating the idea you see before you.

• Creative Statement

  Creativity is how I organize my world. Creativity is everything to me because it allows me to makes sense of the insanity that surrounds me.
